Sister Sarah Hennessy started Meditations for Mental Health in 2019. Since then, her weekly sessions have gone virtual, reaching people all over the world.
During the Zoom sessions, Sister Sarah will check in on guests, offer positive words of encouragement and provide time for quiet meditation.
Sister Sarah said she too struggled with anxiety and depression, and meditation helped her in many ways.
“It’s calming, it’s broadening, it opens your mind to a bigger world,” Hennessy says. “It opens up your mind to new possibilities.”
The sessions are free and take place on Thursdays from 6:30pm to 7:30pm.
To sign up for meditations for emotional health, visit the Franciscan Spirituality Center’s Website.
