Recognizing Rituals
Recognizing rituals, making meaningful
moments that cultivate happiness. As
our daily lives have become busier, we miss opportunities to pause and
celebrate some of life’s most precious moments. Some days, we move along on autopilot. Join with others as we take time to
understand how rituals can help with overcoming those hijacked moments. Susan is a certified mindfulness educator
who works with students in a number of schools in our area. Caitlin Eastman, a local teacher and
artist, will work with children to craft ritual objects.
