Coming Back to Your Senses – Nourishing Calm
Join us in person on the beautiful Stanford campus to delight in cultivating calm contentment and well-being by mindfully enjoying natural sounds, sights, tastes, and tactile sensations.
Contemplative activities will invite you to listen to the melodies of bubbling fountains while resting in serene landscapes and delighting in the flavors of summer fruits. Guided practices will include soothing diaphragmatic breathing, a relaxing body scan, and evidence-based self-massage of hands, feet, ears, and face to quiet the mind and soothe the nervous system. You will also learn the neuroscience of sustaining well-being through natural sensory-based vagus nerve activation to nourish calm.
Come enjoy a rejuvenating experience and leave with practical tools to bring tranquility into your daily life.
