Amidst the holiday scramble, there is a holiday oasis in Medford—the Center, Life in Balance. The center offers a respite from the hustle and bustle, helping one bring a little balance into one’s life. Consider stopping in to restore, replenish, reset. The energy within the center is peaceful, uplifting, calming and light.   

For a short midday break, the center offers free 10-minute meditations on Wednesdays and Fridays at noon. Also there are workshops that can feed the spirit and relax the body. 

Hassle-free shopping is also available. A gift certificate to the center can be used with any practitioner or workshop or in the Zen Den on Main—a holistic shop of wellness and healing products including essential oils, gemstones, herbal teas, wind chimes, singing bowls, jewelry, clothing, home décor, unique books and more. 

The shop will be featuring seasonal teas with premade gift sets available, ornaments and holiday crystals. One can also create one’s own gift set. Any gift set over $30 will receive a 10 percent discount. And gift cards worth $50 are available for $45.
