Meditation for pain management series to begin Sept. 19

Mary Anne LaTorre, RN, MA, will lead a five-part series on meditative approaches to pain management starting at 11 a.m., Wednesday, Sept. 19, at the Lewes Wellness Center. Meditation has long been known to be a helpful tool to lower blood pressure, reduce pain and treat symptoms of stress. Pain is a complex phenomenon involving physical, emotional and social factors, and the sessions will explore these aspects and provide some helpful tools. 

For those who want to begin their weeks in a focused way, a meditation hour will be held from 9 to 10 a.m. each Monday. For those who feel unsure about meditation practices or have never tried them, there will be a four-part series called Meditation for Beginners from 10 to 11 a.m. beginning Wednesday, Oct. 24.

The Wellness Center is at 20268 Plantation Road, Lewes. For more information or to register, call 302-313-9990.
