This month’s speaker is Sandi Alstrand on the topic “Bringing Ritual into Daily Life for Inner Peace and Happiness.”

“We perform rituals every day, although most of the time we don’t recognize we are doing so,” says Alstrand. “Mindfully engaging in rituals can enhance health and overall happiness.”

In this talk, learn what rituals are and how they can bring more peace and fulfillment to our everyday lives, plus find rituals that you can easily perform alone or with others.
