The practice of yoga was developed some 5,000-10,000 years ago with a primary intention of preparing the body for sitting meditation practice. In keeping with this intention, Wendy will be offering a weekly Insight Meditation sitting group on Friday mornings, 8:30AM-9:45AM.
Insight “Vipassana” Meditation is a mindfulness meditation practice which comes out of the Buddhist tradition as practiced in India and Southeast Asia. Through the gradual cultivation of calm, focused awareness of breath, body, emotions and thoughts, this practice gives rise to clarity, insight and compassion for self and others.
This is a drop in group which is open to all. No advance sign up is necessary. If your schedule allows, you may wish to come for the meditation class and stay for the 10:00AM Kaiut Yoga class which follows.
In keeping with Buddhist tradition, this sitting group will be offered freely. There will be an opportunity to make a donation offering of “dana” to help cover room rental expense as well as to provide teacher support. Dana is both a Pali word and a Sanskrit word meaning “generosity.”.\
