The event is hosted and coordinated by our group members and is free (although you will have an opportunity to leave a small gift of a dollar or two to share in the facility rental, if you like).

Our practice for the Day of Mindfulness will include: sitting meditation (no more than 30 minutes per sitting), walking meditation, mindful eating, singing, a guided meditation in deep relaxation, a dharma talk, and a small amount of discussion although most of the day's practice will be in silence.

BRING your own lunch, a cup (tea will be supplied), a meditation cushion and mat if you sit on the floor, a blanket for the deep relaxation, and warm clothing suitable for outside walking meditation. Chairs are provided, and some floor cushions. Feel free to bring your favorite meditation cushions.
