BIPOC Circle with Lynn Teo
Join our BIPOC community to slow down, rest, practice and connect. This gathering will offer practices of deep nurturing and self-compassion for building nervous system capacity. We’ll create an embodied sense of Sangha (community) to practice in Circle, co-create a culture of belonging and allow wisdom to emerge from the collective. Together we'll rest, dream, move, journal, connect, share and deeply listen to ourselves and each other.
Foundations of Mindfulness Meditation: A Primer for Interested Meditators
These group sessions aim to guide participants through the foundational concepts and techniques of mindfulness meditation. From the practical “nuts and bolts” to the profound, we will explore the intersections of the roots of early Buddhist teachings and current meditative practices.
Parenting with the Dharma
The circle of six parents, plus one precious toddler, met for the first time the morning of Tuesday, November 5th. We discussed scheduling, sat together, shared some parenting challenges, and had some laughs. We all agreed Everyday Blessings: The Inner Work of Mindful Parenting by Myla & Jon Kabat-Zinn would be a good book for the group to discuss.
Sutta Study with Adam Pepi
We will read through suttas (original teachings from the Buddha passed down orally and by text) and discuss how to apply them to our daily lives. Participants are welcome to join for as many or as few sessions as desired.
