Weekday Class:
Introduction to Insight Meditation (5 week class - 3/28-4/25)
- With Ted Jones
Thu 03/28/19 - 7:00pm to 8:30pm
Insight meditation is a time tested method of mind training that enables us to change our relationship to each moment’s experience, and thus our lives. In this five week series we will systematically explore how to calm and steady the mind and see with more clarity into our lives. As we strengthen this capacity we begin to move from suffering and reactivity to responsiveness, freshness and ease. We learn to touch and live in the mindful moment. Although this series is designed for beginners, all are welcome and students may choose to repeat this series as new material will be introduced each time.
This class will run from March 28th - April 25.

Awakening to the Present Moment: A Retreat for Beginning and Newer Students
- With Ted Jones
Sat 03/30/19 - 10:00am to 12:30pm
Insight meditation is a time-tested method of mind training that enables us to change our relationship to each moment’s experience, and thus our lives. In this retreat, specially designed for beginners and those with limited meditation experience, we will systematically explore (through sitting and walking meditation periods, teachings, and discussion) how to calm and steady the mind and see more clearly. As we strengthen this capacity we begin to move from suffering and reactivity to responsiveness, freshness and ease. We learn how to touch and live in the mindful moment.
