Mindfulness for MBSR Grads and Others


An Invitation to All MBSR Grads

Do you remember the mountain meditation?
Emulating the qualities of the mountain in our practice?
The stillness? The stability? The massiveness and the soaring heights? How the mountain is simply there -no matter the season, the weather, the time of day?
Illuminated by the sun by day, the moon by night?
Obscured by weather? And yet always reappearing as the weather clears...

Come join fellow MBSR grads on Thursday evenings from 5:30 to 6:30pm through August 27.
Price: In lieu of payment we gladly accept donations via PayPal to the food pantry to help local people in need. Click the Donate button below.

We’ll have meditation, mindfulness, and discussion around practicing in this life we are living now -amidst the tumult of COVID-19 and unrest around injustice.

The call of the mountain is a reminder of the stillness within us, the stability we can touch when we take our one seat again. The stillness is available at any moment.

Come join these summer sessions and drop into the stillness of the mountain in this moment.
