At JSL Fleischman Residence, the Life Enrichment Coordinators, and volunteer practitioners of reiki, mindfulness and meditation have been bringing peaceful moments to the residents for many years often utilizing music and the spoken word.
Millions of people claim meditation, otherwise known as “sitting still and thinking about nothing,” can be as simple as it is surprisingly hard. Why is it hard? When we practice shutting out the noise in our brains, we begin to notice all the thoughts that weigh us down, worry us, take us out of the present and send us down a rabbit hole of worry. If we can quiet our brains, we can connect to the source of our energy, guidance and spirituality. I like to think this source is Gd.
