“Go into yourself and see how deep the place is from which your life flows.” Rainer Maria Rilke.

Drawing on mindfulness practices and Buddhist perspectives, we attend to the breath and present moment awareness, so that we may step back from inciting thoughts and emotions, loosen the grip of the past, and open to silence. Through these practices, the mind settles, and the heart opens and softens. We touch the inherent goodness within, cultivate compassion for self and others and learn to engage fully with life, no matter what comes our way.

Includes instruction, guided meditation and silent practice, poetry, readings, and writings.

Open to all. No prior mediation experience necessary. Participants are encouraged to attend every meeting to receive the benefit of regular practice within a supportive, spiritual community.
