Meditation and Mini Facial with LLL – Mental Health Week
May 6 @ 1:30 PM – 3:00 PM

This event is in partnership with Lifelong Learning, a program by Québec City Reading Council, and is open to all 50+ LLL members.

Take a moment to pause as we carve out some essential time in our busy week.  Let’s release the tensions and pressures of everyday life and inhale deeply.  This is your moment.  A chance to rejuvenate your mind and soothe your spirit. During the session, we’ll begin by releasing accumulated stress, ensuring we feel grounded, then proceed with a tranquil face massage, culminating in a peaceful meditation.  Hazel will be your guide through this mindfulness journey as we ease into a slower pace and refresh our senses.

Join Hazel (Tropic), Catherine (Lifelong Learning) and Verity (WE Mind Mental Health) for a relaxing afternoon to celebrate Mental Health Week.  Participants will also receive a Mental Health Goodie Bag!

Registration is limited to 14 people.
