e-Learning: Calm Your Mind

Presented by Momiji / JSS

Wed. Apr 26, 2023, 3:00 – 4:00 pm (Japanese)

1-hour online session (Zoom) will be co-provided by Momiji Health Care Society and Japanese Social Services (JSS), in Japanese.

What is this session about?

People may be stressed when things do not go as they would like. This can upset or worry us, make us inpatient, or worse, make us sick. However, we can live calm and cheerful, enjoy our lives, and not be bound with negative thoughts and feelings.

This seminar focuses on sharing ways to try controlling your mind while explaining underlying philosophies and techniques such as meditation and mindfulness (*Note: this is not a solicitation to a specific religion).
