Introduction to Insight Meditation
6 Tuesdays / 6:30 - 8:30 PM / September 14-October 19
A 6-week class series to establish an Insight (mindfulness) meditation practice in your life. Each class will include instructions, practice together and a talk on the basic Buddhist philosophy upon which the meditation is based. This is the introductory class series that James Baraz taught for over 30 years. This is the first time James is offering it again in over a decade.
If you’re looking to establish a practice and understand the teachings upon which mindfulness meditation and the Awakening Joy course is based, this series is for you.
Offered on a dana (donation) basis. You can come to the first class and offer a donation then. Suggested donation $20/class, $120 for the series. No one turned away.
We will meet on Zoom. You will be sent the Zoom details closer to the event.
