Beginning … and Beginning Again: The Buddha’s Meditation Instructions (Hybrid)
Wednesday, January 28th, 3:15am - 4:45am UTC
with Kitty Costello and David Onek
Tuesdays, January 27 & February 10, 7:15 - 8:30 pm
& Half Day Retreat Saturday, February 14, 9 am - 1 pm
Whether you’re new to meditation or you want to revitalize your practice, let’s unpack and experience the Buddha’s meditation instructions together. This is an Insight-oriented meditation class, grounded in the Buddha’s Four Foundations of Mindfulness.
Each session will include a combination of guided and silent meditations, short talks on the Four Foundations, short mindful movement sessions (chi gung or walking meditation), recommendations for home practice, plus reports, comments, and Q&A.
We encourage you to sign up for and attend all 4 sessions, for the continuity of learning and cohesion of the sangha group, but drop-ins are welcome.
