3. Get active (walking, weightlifting, stretching, and other forms of exercise)
4. Practice mindfulness

Healthy Living at the Library continues at the Carpenter Branch on July 7 at 7 p.m. Join Philip Horn as he explains how to use Meditation for Stress Relief.
Discover the latest research on the benefits of meditation, learn basic exercises for meditation practice, and see a hands-on demonstration of sitting for meditation and breathing spaces. You’ll come away with tools to reduce daily stress.
