Be Still: Building a Mindful Life

Open from September 2021 until Spring 2024

Do you find yourself rushing from moment to moment with barely a breath in between? The scriptures recommend that we take time to “be still” (e.g., Ps. 46:10). This can
include developing mindful habits where we strive to be fully present in each moment, paying attention to what we hear, see, and feel. This exhibition explains mindfulness,
the potential benefits of practicing it, a brief history of it, and how you can build a more mindful life.

Explore the exhibition in a way that is intellectually enlarging, character building, and spiritually strengthening because being more mindful will contribute to your path of life-long learning.
