It was a joy to share mindfulness meditation, breathing meditation, and loving-kindness practice.
Teaching younger generations how to cultivate awareness, compassion, and inner peace is always a meaningful experience. 🙏💛
A heartfelt thank you to Professor Elizabeth Macchale for the kind invitation and support.
