Meditation and mindfulness offer important health and wellness benefits. In the midst of uncertainly, these practices can bring clarity and thus support the reduction of stress and anxiety. In the final session of  this noontime series, hosted by Roland Hsu of the Stanford Help Center, join physician and meditation instructor Dr. Angela Lumba-Brown for a guided meditation on approaching change.  As the summer gives way to fall, we come together to observe change and how we greet it.
