Bil Owen begins Tuesday’s Quiet Spot meditation in the Interfaith Chapel with breathing exercises.

The Office of Religious and Spiritual Life offers “The Quiet Spot,” teaching various guided meditation techniques, on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.  A recent session was guided by Bil Owen, instructional technology coordinator for the Academic Success Center.  “It’s always encouraging that people are taking time to work with their minds,” said Owen, who has led meditation for two years. 

Bill Owen sat cross-legged in the front of the room, tapping a metal bowl and spinning the microphone around it to fill the room with ambient noise as he whispered instructions to three students sitting on round pillows.
