SUMMARY:For People of Color: Beginning a Meditation Practice
DESCRIPTION:Part of EBMC’s Core Buddhist Teachings: 5-Month Curriculum \nwith Mushim \nAre 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. \nRegistration: Registration is required and space is limited.

The Center and the teachers will be sustained only by your voluntary donations (the practice of generous giving\, or “dana”). Please donate generously\, in proportion to your ability: \n* Either online (you will be offered an opportunity during the online registration process)\n* Or at the event\, in the two baskets at EBMC\, one for the Center\, the second for the Teacher \nThank you for your generosity.  EBMC will be only be sustained through our collective generosity. \nFragrance-free: In order to protect the health of community members with environmental illness\, please do not wear fragranced products (including “natural” fragrances) or clothes laundered in fragranced products to EBMC. \nEBMC is wheelchair accessible.
