Research shows that a Mindful practice can bring more joy and contentment into your life. Do you have health problems? Mindfulness has been shown to lower blood pressure, improve depression and anxiety, decrease worry and ruminations, and lessen chronic pain, among other things.

"A Spiritually Transformative Experience"
2019-05-15 18:30 - 20:30 | All Souls UU Church, 25 Church St., Bellville, Ohio, 44813
Join Dr. Walter Kania for a documentary on “The Quest For Enlightenment.” It is a positive, life-affirming journey of the indomitable human spirit. It is a story of a spiritual awakening, a journey from materialism and a matter-based consciousness to a heart-based spirituality. It could be described as a pursuit of Truth, or a stumble toward the light. The message is that it is the heart not the brain that is the primary organ of intelligence. It confers the message that human emotion and consciousness have an impact on the physical world much as Quantum Physics tells us. Materialism is seen as being equated with insanity.

This documentary is an ultimate reality show. We know that simply watching an act of compassion produces oxytocin in our system. It will occur for everyone who attends.
