About this event
Decompress and connect at the end of your work week with meditation practice and community!
This open session offers one hour of silent meditation followed by a meditative talking circle practice, and the opportunity to connect and socialize afterwards at brunch.
No experience required, and meditators of all traditions are welcome. Cushions will be provided but feel free to bring your own.
We will be following our usual format of silent meditation followed by talking circle, but this time there will be an hour for silent meditation before the talking circle at 11:30am. You can arrive at any point during the meditation from 10:30-11:30am.
