Unfortunately, we need to cancel this session. Stay tuned for this topic at a future Community Meditation date!

Join Maya for a Community Meditation session. Maya will lead participants in a shamatha (peaceful abiding) meditation practice together, followed by a short teaching and group discussion on a different theme related to mindfulness. Suitable for beginners or experienced meditators. All are welcome.

Our theme for this session is “Cultivating Gratitude.” We’ll explore the science behind a regular gratitude practice and discuss ways in which to cultivate thankfulness each day, both on the meditation cushion and in our everyday lives.

Community Meditation occurs every first and third Tuesday from 6-7 pm at Firefly Studio.

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