Insight Meditation (known as Vipassana in the Buddhist tradition) is a simple technique which has been practiced in Asia for over 2,500 years. Beginning with the focusing of attention on the breath, the practice concentrates and calms the mind. It allows one to see through the mind's conditioning and thereby to live more fully present in the moment.

This daylong will include instructions on mindfulness of breath, body, thoughts, and emotions, as well as suggestions for starting a home practice.

Bring a friend for FREE when you register.

Young Adults (18-26) and Seniors (65+ with limited and fixed income) are invited to attend this day for $25.
