Our mindfulness sessions are free to anyone, experienced or not, and are secular (non-religious). They are all drop-ins and do not require registering ahead of time.  They are led by a rotating group of experienced meditators, several of whom are teachers of mindfulness meditation, all of whom are volunteering their time. The Calendar page will tell you who’s leading which sessions; note that changes in leaders may occur.  Beginners and experienced meditators are welcome.

The format for each gathering varies. The one-hour sessions (Mon & Tues evenings) includes two 20-minute guided mindfulness meditations and opportunities for teachings, and discussions. Some sessions include short readings, poems, quotes, or talks by the leader. The 30 and 40 minute sessions include a 20-25 minute guided meditation, followed by opportunities to check-in, ask questions, or hear a relevant poem or quote.

No registration is required. Just come via Zoom or in-person on Tuesday evenings.
