Moving Toward Meditation
A Virtual Meditation Course with Alyssa Snow
I’m Alyssa Snow.
As a mom of four and the owner of MindBodySoul Yoga+Wellness, I have found that daily meditation makes a huge difference in my quality of life.
So many of my students - both in studio and online - have requested resources, classes, and help in developing their own meditation practice.
Moving Toward Mediation is a three month, (mostly) online course that will teach you how to establish a meditation practice in the midst of your fast-paced life.
