Library offers free workshop on meditation

The Cloquet Public Library will be offering a free meditation workshop, "An Introduction to Meditation," at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, part of a continued commitment to offer free workshops and classes that promote lifelong learning. The class is free and open to all. Bring a yoga mat or towel, and a blanket.

The workshop will be taught by Carolyn Ripp. I asked her about meditation and how she makes it relevant to her busy life as a small-business owner, mother of three active young adults, and a wife.

Ripp has been working in the field of physical, mental, and emotional health for more than 30 years....
