The Essence of Insight Meditation - a Six-Week Mindfulness Series
Join us in a deepening exploration of Insight Meditation over six Sunday evenings, beginning October 1st. Also known as Mindfulness or Vipassana, Insight Meditation is a path and practice of wisdom, compassion, and contentment. This series will dive into the philosophy, practices, and personal experience of this profound and transformative path.
Sliding Scale $10 - $20/evening, or $60 - $80 for the full series. Sunday Evenings, 6:30pm-8:30pm. (FIRST EVENING ATTENDANCE REQUIRED) Limited space.
Guided by mindfulness teacher Justin Michelson, and inspired by the Buddhist teaching of the Four Foundations of Mindfulness, each session takes a different theme, moving from our physical bodies to our emotional experiences to the life of the mind and the nature of consiousness. It culminates in a option day-long silent retreat on the seventh Sunday, November 12th.
