Guided Meditations

These meditations sessions are hosted by Brennan Mallonee, LMHC, a licensed mental health professional who lives in Jamaica Plain. These sessions are 1 hour guided meditations meant for anyone. No experience with meditation is necessary; you don’t even have to like traditional meditation! She’ll guide the group through using a variety of somatic grounding and centering techniques that can help you calm your nervous system. Open-ended meditations can be activating for folks with certain mental health concerns, but grounding meditation draws on trauma-informed therapy practices to build a calming experience that’s suitable for more people.

Varies Sundays at 5pm (Check Mindbody or website for specific days)
