Stress, tension and feelings of uncertainty are ever-present as we continue to navigate the challenges of the global health pandemic, telecommuting and e-learning. Join University of Illinois Extension Educator, Michele Crawford for Meditation Mornings to start your day with a few minutes to take care of you.

This six-week series will focus on the prana vayus. In the yoga tradition, prana is life force energy naturally found in all living things. The vayus work together harmoniously to support optimal health of mind and body. Through a balanced system of vital energy, we can develop the self-discipline and courage to become a positive force in our world, ultimately realizing our greatest potential. Through the practice of meditation and breathing techniques, we will unpack the unique gifts of each vayu individually, learning how to integrate their essential qualities into daily life.
