Part of EBMC’s Core Buddhist Teachings: 5-Month Curriculum
Mondays, April 3, 10, 17, 24, 2017
7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
With Mushim
Are you a looking for a way to start a mindfulness meditation practice, but don’t quite know how? These classes will give you the basics of sitting and walking/movement meditation in the vipassana (insight) style, and metta (goodwill) meditation. Don’t worry about “getting it right” – if you can sit – on a folding chair, on floor cushions, in a wheelchair – or lie down – and breathe, you’re off to a good start! For those seeking stress reduction as part of 6 months of suggested curriculum for those new to Buddhism. As self-identified people of color, we will practice creating beloved community to support each other’s physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.
