Attendees will learn how the rich traditions of Indian culture can help them feel more present and aware in their daily lives at “Mindfulness the Indian Way,” a full-day, immersive experience planned for Saturday, Sept. 28, 9 a.m.-3 p.m. at Madison Central Library
This program is part of Madison Public Library’s Library Takeover program. The planning team – made up of Nita Ambedkar, Kiran Nautiyal, Deepti Awasthi, Vidya Matre, Arpita Joshi, and Vinita Shrivastava – is inviting the community to explore mindfulness during sessions led by local artists and organizations that are focused on health and wellness, art, dance and food. A mini-bazar of local vendors selling jewelry, art, food and more will be available to peruse for the duration of the event outside the community room on the 3rd floor.
“Mindfulness is about being present and savoring the little moments of life. Our goal is to share ways of incorporating mindfulness in your day-to-day life through art, food, health, and wellness–all inspired by Indian culture,” said Nita Ambedkar, Library Takeover team member and owner of THP – The Happiest Place, in a press release. “Whether you’re new to mindfulness or looking to deepen your understanding, this event will provide an experience that blends cultural traditions with the principles of mindful living.”
