What we’re about
Please join us in the spirit of group meditation practice. We are meditation practitioners from many backgrounds and with varying practice experience. Everyone is welcome!
We practice a basic silent (non-guided) meditation for 30 minutes, a walking meditation (deliberate walking, feeling connection to our bodies and the earth) for 10 minutes, and a Dharma book reading and discussion for 20 to 30 minutes. Recent books read by the group have included works by Thich Nhat Hanh, Tulku Thondup, Pema Chödrön, Joseph Goldstein and Charlotte Joko Beck.
Whether you are new to meditation or a seasoned practitioner this session offers each of us the ability to practice meditation with others and share our experiences.
If you are new to meditation, send us a message for some helpful guidance.
*** Please note we are meeting via Zoom from 7/15 through 8/19. Send us an email for the link with a brief description of your meditation practice experience. ***

I am aware that every step, every breath, every smile, every look made in mindfulness is an act of true love. —Thich Nhat Hanh
