Workshop Title: Meditation for a healthier you
Location: University of Houston Wellness center
Sponsor: UH Wellness Center
Time: Wednesday, September 10, from 1:30 – 2:30 pm
Master Jian Dan was invited by the University of Houston Wellness Center to be a speaker at their wellness program and address the topic of meditation for a healthier you. We all strive for a healthier body. However, going to the gym only fulfills half of the equation. Research has indicated that regular meditation helps regulate blood pressure, stabilize emotion, improve concentration and reduce stress, all of which contribute to a healthier life style. In this interactive workshop, Master explained the various benefits of meditation and demonstrated breath-counting method, a proper and safe way of meditation. Participants meditated and asked questions at the end.
Today also marks as a milestone for Master’s dharma work. Even though he has been giving talks at student clubs and classes, this is the first time he accepted an university-level invitation and participated in university-level event.
Two more university-level talks coming up this semester. On October 28 and 30 at 4pm, come to UH Learning Support Service and Master will give two talks about reducing academic stress through meditation. Stay tuned for more updates.
