Mindfulness of Breathing: Working Towards Peace and Insight

August 19, 2017 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

With Devin Berry

In this daylong, geared toward new meditators and those seeking a refresher course, we will explore the Buddha’s own teaching on cultivating both tranquility and deep insight through the full awareness of breathing. Please bring a beginner’s mind and an open heart.

Devin Berry is a co-founder of Deeper Still, the teen sangha at EBMC. He has been practicing meditation since 1999, both in the Plum Village tradition of Thich Nhat Hanh and in the Vipassana practice of Spirit Rock and IMS. Devin completed the first Commit2Dharma program at EBMC and is a graduate of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction teacher training practicum.
