"Mindfulness and Meditation allow us to open our hearts, relax our bodies, and clear our minds enough to experience the vast, mysterious, sacred reality of life directly. With Practice we come to know for ourselves that eternity is available in each moment.

Returns to Monday, April 1
--No Fooling!


Monday Morning Mindfulness will return to Monday mornings on April 1 at 7 AM!

Making the time and space to practice on a regular basis at the beginning of the workweek
can be an excellent way to "begin anew" each week.

Join us at 7 or 8 or 9 AM! Leave when you need to!

••••NEWS BULLETIN••••••••••••••••••••




Monday Morning MIndfulness will take place on TUESDAY MORNINGS during the month of March 2013 to make space for Nick Marchese's twice weekly Yoga Class: Mondays and Fridays at 7 AM at Community Yoga.

 

So, this month we either will suspend the usual constraints of conventional time and space and continue to call it Monday Morning MIndfulness--or, perhaps, in an effort to be more accurate while maintaining my beloved alliteration call it Morning MIndfulness Meditation....A rose is a rose, is a rose.....

The format continues: I'll be there from 7 until 10 AM. I aim to begin a sitting period around the top of the hour at 7, 8, and 9 and will adjust to the needs of those gathered as best we can. You are free to come and leave at any point as we alternate between Sitting Meditation, Walking Meditation, Light Yogic Stretching-- and, sometimes, Conversation. Beginners and experienced practicioners are welcome.

Donations are appreciated, but not required. All proceeds will go to Community Yoga!

Monday Morning Mindfulness Is On!

Monday Morning Mindfulness will take place this Monday, November 12. The official observance of Veteran's Day for many, I think it's fitting to spend time continuing our cultivation of an Open Heart and Mind in our quest for Peace. Hope you can join me.
One Love,

Labor Day is NOT just about the beer and barbeque!

Monday Morning Mindfulness in celebrating Labor Day on Monday, September 3, 2012
and will return next Monday, the 8th!

In my personal morning meditation today, I'll be taking time to contemplate the struggle; the lives lived and lost in the efforts to bring us the quality of life we enjoy today.

I'm sure that Tonglen Practice will come in handy.  I can feel my heart bursting as I write this.
One Love,
Lance
