Jacksonville Public Library in collaboration with Karina Moore of The Morgan County University of Illinois Extension presents: “Being Mindful in a Busy World” on April 14.

This program geared toward adults aged 50+ will help participants explore benefits of mindfulness meditation and teach them techniques that reduce stress and increase life satisfaction. The program will also include fun brain games!

Feeling disconnected between yourself and life? Having trouble feeling present in the moment? We all lead such busy lives that our mental, emotional and physical health suffers from the disconnect that can happen between ourselves and life. Mindfulness is the act of paying purposeful attention to the present moment. It offers us a way to enjoy our lives more and reduce stress through a few simple practices.

Admission is free.
