In moments of crisis and stress, we can find courage, inspiration, hope and camaraderie in the arts – music, theater, dance, festivals, museums and more. Cincinnati arts are eager for you to resume participating in their activities as soon as it’s safe to do so. In the meantime, The Well has created a specially-curated playlist just for subscribers to the ArtsWave edition of Mindful Music Moments. Sign up here to get started.

The brief musical selections, featuring the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and Cincinnati Opera, are preceded by short, guided meditations designed to reconnect you with the arts and nurture your spirit. In about four minutes, at a time that’s convenient for you, we hope this mindful arts break will add a little calm and light to your day. We will soon be adding Mindful Poetry Moments to your playlist.

We hope these Mindful Moments make a different kind of impact. Enjoy, and be well.
