Reception and Book Signing

Join us in the Meditation Room on Wednesday, October 19, 2011 for a book reception and signing for Meditation and the classroom (State University of New York Press, 2011) with editor and author,Dr. Fran Grace (pictured below).


Meditation has a proven positive effect on human consciousness, bringing states of inner peace, life balance, and focused attention. This book, edited by Judith Simmer-Brown and Fran Grace, explores the use of meditation, mindfulness, yoga, and self-inquiry in higher education.

The Meditation Room at the University of Redlands, described in two of the book chapters, is the first of its kind at any college or university in the country, offering students a learning space dedicated to inner cultivation.

Everyone is invited to attend!
