Second and fourth Saturday mornings of the month, from 8 am to 10 am at the Center for Inner Peace.

On Saturdays, there are four sitting periods of 25 minutes each, beginning on the half-hour, with walking meditation in between. No chanting or readings, just meditation. Come for all or part of the time, but please enter and exit the zendo during the walking meditations.

Wayfarer's Talks

On fifth Wednesdays (every few months) at our regular Wednesday evening sitting, a sangha member shares his or her path into and through meditation practice with the sangha.


 

Practice Check-ins

On the third Wednesday of every month at 5:00 PM, Andrew Palmer, Sensei is facilitating a Practice Check-in in the Center basement before the regular Wednesday sitting. These drop-in sessions are forums for discussions of bringing our lives to practice, and bringing practice to our lives. No pre-registration required, and it's O.K. to come a little late if your schedule requires it.
