Community Meditation

Firefly Studio is committed to making mindfulness practices accessible to everyone through Community Meditation classes. Maya Rook is the primary teacher for this bi-monthly gathering. She leads participants in a shamatha-vipashyana meditation practice together, offers a short teaching, and leads group discussion on a theme related to mindfulness. This session is suitable for beginners who want to learn how to meditate or experienced meditators who want to deepen their practice in community.

Join us for a donation-based Community Meditation session every first and third Tuesday of the month, from 6-7 pm.

Sliding Scale $10-20 via cash, Venmo @maya-rook, or card when you pay online.
