About the event
Finding peace in daily life could be rather difficult for people in Hong Kong, such a fast-paced city. Yet Christian Meditation believes the practice is a key to peace of mind, and it is universal in different contexts. How is Christian Meditation relevant to the business world, and particularly holistic women leadership? Join us for a journey to peace through the practice of meditation.
