Indigenous Student Wellness Workshop: Guided meditation with Sloan

Indigenous students are invited to join Sloan Miller for an online guided meditation workshop. Sloan will lead participants through the fundamentals of mindfulness-based meditation and will facilitate a guided visualization session. This visualization exercise will delve into the teachings that animals can offer us, shedding light on our connection with Mother Earth as we walk upon her.
