FREE Monthly Guided Meditations at ArcoIris Studio
Sundays 10:00 – 11:00 starting April 15th, 2012
Meditation is quite simple. It is the ability to quiet your mind and focus inward. That’s all. It sounds easy enough, but it is a skill you must continue to hone; the more you practice, the better you will get at it and the easier it will become to apply it to your daily living activities. We will guide you through a series of techniques (self-awareness, breath awareness, relaxation, and meditation techniques) to help you tune-out and tune-in. Bring your favorite meditation pillow.

Can massages help cancer patients?
It certainly can't hurt in many cases, according to massage therapist Sandra Avendano and homeopath Martin Picard. Working with the Jewish General Hospital's One in Three Forum,
the team held a seminar about the benefits of this particular form of complimentary medicine.
One in Three points out that, "dating back thousands of years, massage therapy is more than just an effective method to unwind from the stresses of life. Today’s scientific evidence validates massage as a treatment benefiting those with a range of conditions, including those living with cancer."
