Description:
Learn meditation, relax deeply, speak your truth and develop your mind — all while hanging out with other great people your age. Through the practices of mindfulness and Insight Meditation, we take the time to reconnect with ourselves in order to experience more peace, wisdom and compassion.
Classes will include movement, community-building games, meditation instruction and council, a practice of witnessing and contributing to the group’s collective wisdom. The final class will include a potluck dinner celebration. During the class, parents are also welcome to read, meditate and connect with each other in the foyer of the Community Meditation Center.
Registration limit: 15 students; pre-registration is strongly recommended, as this series often fills.
