Mother’s Day meditation event at El Morro is open to public

By THE STAR STAFF

The meditation group Conscious Pause invites the public to celebrate Mother’s Day differently, by participating in its monthly meeting of Meditation in the Morro, on Sunday, May 14 at 9 a.m.

“Mindfulness meditation helps us focus on the present, accepting thoughts, feelings and sensations without judging them, cultivating mindfulness and managing stress and anxiety,” the Conscious Pause group said in a statement.

Conscious Pause is not a religious group and welcomes people of diverse denominations, nationalities and genders.

The event will be held in the Santa Rosa Bastion, El Morro Viejo San Juan, in front of Ballajá. It is suggested that participants bring a mat or towel, hydration and the desire to connect with oneself and the community. The session is free of cost and chairs are allowed for those with difficulty sitting on the ground.
