Come as you are and simply sit, open your heart, deepen your breath, and your mind may quiet.
Susan Baker, Serenity Founder
Individual & Group Meditation
Serenity’s meditation practice is based on Jon Kabat Zinn’s Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) model. MBSR is a healing approach that combines meditation and mindfulness exercises, including body awareness through simple body movements and cultivation of the senses. Through breath work, guided body scans, and sensory-incorporated imagery led by trained professionals, you begin to achieve more life balance. MBSR teaches clients how to become more aware of their negative automatic thoughts and feelings that may contribute to stress, so you can get back to feeling whole.
In mindfulness meditation, there is no previous experience needed and no desired state of being. You come, without judgment, as you are. Clients simply strive to cultivate a greater awareness of the present moment. By increasing their connection to their breath and body, participants in MBSR strive to reduce their overall level of arousal and emotional reactivity, and gain a deeper sense of calm.
