This live recording starts with a class discussion about the fight/flight response and research around the benefits of mindfulness meditation. Teacher and musician Amy then guides a mindfulness meditation starting with body scan, breathing practices, and mindful thought concepts. Amy concludes with a slow, calming improvisation on her viola, followed by an improvisation by a class member on African-American flute. Note: This practice was recorded at 6pm on the 15th November at Worldly Treasures, Orange NSW 2800.
