We have two events in the next week.

On Saturday, 9:30am to 11:00am, we will explore mindfulness of emotion with a focus on skillful responsiveness to fear. We intend to start with silent meditation followed by a brief dharma talk by Kathleen and then have a group discussion. We will end the morning with guided Metta.

And then a few days later for our evening meeting, we are having our regular sitting and walking week – the schedule is:

6:00 – 6:30 sitting
6:30 – 7:00 walking
7:00 – 7:30 sitting

We meet at BIBS – location in the sidebar.

Sitting in January

Friday, January 20th, there will be an all day sitting which will include alternating periods of sitting and walking meditation, guided instructions and a dharma talk.

You are welcome to come to some or all of these day-long sits.

Next Tuesday we will be stepping on down A Path With Heart with the next two chapters:

11: Searching for the Buddha: A Lamp Unto Ourselves
12: Accepting the Cycles of Spiritual Life

We invite each of you who plan to be there next Tuesday, to bring in an insight and a question from the readings… you can certainly bring in more, but we thought it might be more engaging if we all lead the discussion.

The schedule is:

6:00 – 6:30 sitting
6:30 – 7:15 discussion
7:15 – 7:30 sitting

The sitting takes place at BIBS.
