GO AND DO
Autumnal Equinox: Guided Meditation and Sound Bathing
Explore Sound Bathing and Meditation with Liz Ridgely
On Monday, September 22 from 5:30-7:00pm, join us in beautiful Roberts Hall for a full-sensory evening of guided meditation and sound bathing with Liz Ridgely. Liz will introduce us to ways to mark the turning of the seasons at the Autumnal Equinox, celebrating balance, renewal, and the divine presence in our lives.
This offering is the first in a new series of special events hosted at St. John’s that explore the intersection of physical wellness and spiritual practice. In the busyness of daily life, we are so often pulled away from the ministry of presence; this evening invites you to pause, breathe, and let your heart catch up with your mind and your body.
Cost: $30 (set by the facilitator to cover the program)
