Winter is a time of silence. Many of the animals in the forest retreat into hibernation, leaves fall from trees, and many people tend to look inward and reflect upon the past year. This time of year lends itself well to sharing the simplest of comforts: enjoying time spent with loved ones, cooking a warm, homemade meal, or taking time to rest. Could there be a more perfect time to take up a new habit, like meditation? Meditation and mindfulness can be wonderful activities (or, rather, inactivities!) to experience as a family. Not only can they help promote mental wellbeing, they can also become a useful tool to keep in your back pocket for when life gets crazy!
The Main Library is closed for essential preventative maintenance with an anticipated reopening in late October.
