DESCRIPTION:In the busyness of everyday life\, it is easy to lose touch wit
 h ourselves\, with God\, and with the quiet wisdom of the present moment. 
 This two-hour experiential session offers a gentle invitation to slow down
 \, become still\, and return to presence.\nEsther will share some of her o
 wn journey and how learning to be present transformed the way she relates 
 to herself\, others\, and God.  Together we will journey through a guided
  meditation\, bringing kind awareness to what is alive within our bodies.
  \nThe session will include an opportunity to practice deep listening wit
 h one another and some gentle teaching on welcoming whatever arises into p
 resent awareness with compassion rather than resistance. It is often throu
 gh making space for our thoughts\, emotions\, and bodily sensations that h
 ealing\, insight\, and transformation can unfold.\nNo previous experience 
 of meditation is needed. Whether you are seeking greater inner peace or si
 mply a space to pause and reconnect\, you are warmly welcome.\nCome as you
  are. $20 / Pay from your heart\n \nEsther grew up in Northern Ireland du
