Ask one hundred meditators to describe meditation and you may get a perplexing variety of motivations, perspectives, orientations, and experiences. This four-part workshop provides an opportunity to explore that confusing terrain and the attitudes and beliefs about meditation that have shaped your goals and experiences. We will also focus on some elements common to many teachings such as self-inquiry, devotion, and bringing meditation into daily life.

The four workshop leaders will share their distinct meditation challenges and what they wish they had known when they first began meditating. They will also question some commonly held assumptions and look at ways they alter our whole relationship with meditation. Group discussion and dialogue is encouraged to explore experiences and questions important to you. The workshop is designed to be practical for beginning and experienced meditators regardless of your spiritual orientation and background.

How much does the workshop cost?

The suggested donation for each workshop session is $15.00. Donations for the workshop are made when you enroll in the course. We encourage participants to attend all four sessions to receive the maximum benefit. Each session builds upon the last, but even showing up once (or two or three times!) can have a profound effect. You’ll receive a welcome email with information about accessing the course after enrollment.
