Relax into Mother's Day May 10, 2009

A Very Special Mother's Day Event for Mothers and Daughters

Mothers and daughters are invited to conclude their Mother’s Day weekend with a special tour focusing on women’s roles at the Hill House followed by a relaxation class led by Life Coach Beth Freschi.

The tour will highlight the lives and changing relationships of the women at the Hill House, ca. 1891-1921—Mrs. Hill and her social circle; her daughters and their lives; and the many female servants who lived and worked at 240 Summit Avenue.

After the tour, visitors will gather in the elegant Drawing Room where Beth Freschi will lead a special relaxation class featuring modern day relaxation techniques that calm the mind and body. The class will begin with deep breathing, followed by a muscle relaxation exercise, guided imagery, the Loving Kindness Meditation, and a special meditation on motherhood. Relaxation Training is a useful practice for personal wellbeing, and can also be a wonderful bonding experience when shared with a friend or family member.

Previous relaxation classes at the Hill House sold out, so reservations are strongly recommended for this unique event. 


The lilacs will most likely be in bloom
