Mindfulness meditation is a practice that engages posture, everyday movement, the breath and mindful, focused awareness. In practicing together, participants can foster a deeper sense of the present moment, reduce stress and anxiety and find deeper meaning after the death of a loved one. Peter Mullen is an emeritus professor at Salve Regina University and a longtime volunteer. Utilizing The Nine Stages of Calm Staying, which he has been authorized to teach others, is a practice, suitable for beginners and experienced meditators. No prior meditation experience is required.
