We offer several in-person, virtual and hybrid sitting groups. These meetings offer a great opportunity to meditate with others, to share ideas and experiences, and to ask questions. There is no need to register and no cost to attend, though donations are gratefully accepted.
The general format for our sitting groups is:
Our discussion time is used for questions about meditation practice, for checking in with each other on how our meditation practice is going, or for discussion of the dharma talk or guided meditation.
NOTE: Each sitting group location will make individual determinations on whether to cancel due to inclement weather. Please check our calendar for any changes to our current schedule.
