The Healing Power of Meditation
On a rainy Thursday afternoon, Providence House transformed the community room at our Women’s Justice Program into an oasis of positive energy. A circle formed with comfortable seating options and yoga mats curved around the space.

Over the course of an hour and half, 14 women came together to engage in a guided meditation focused on self-love.
