Learn to Meditate
In addition to the meditation instruction available at many public meditation sessions, we offer classes and programs that are specifically geared toward new meditators.
Learn to Meditate
If you are new to meditation and would like to try it, this is a class for you! The instructor will walk you through the techniques of meditation and offer practical ways to incorporate it into your life. This program is also recommended as a “refresher” for current meditators as part of their ongoing practice.
Shambhala Training Level I: The Art of Being Human
Through the practice of meditation, we glimpse unconditional goodness as the ground of our existence. Opening to ourselves with gentleness and appreciation, we begin to see our potential as genuine and compassionate human beings. There are no prerequisites for this course – it is open to everyone.
New Meditators Group
Looking to connect with other meditators? We will explore issues related to meditation practice, especially for people of all ages who are newer to meditation. Meditation can sometimes seem more solitary than we might like – we invite you to join up with others for social time and to share your experiences. This group meets monthly.
If you would like to receive our monthly newsletter, which regularly includes a list of up-to-date programming, you may sign up here.
