7pm Mindfulness Meditation and Connection Circle w/ Tyler

Come join us every Thursday for mindful connection and honest conversation, in a new location :)

This week's theme: Becoming the Whole of Your Experience
In any given moment, there is a vast diversity of perceptions present in our experience. There is also a tendency for our attention to be limited to a few or even just one aspect within that diversity. While this focused mode is useful for certain tasks, it can also result in a persistent sense of contraction and tension. Through relaxing out of this habit and allowing our awareness to expand and encompass the totality of our experience, we learn to sense the quieter elements that are already here, just waiting to be noticed. We learn to be present not only with a limited subset that our conditioned minds believe is relevant (which turns out to be a very small portion!), but with all that is.

Life is busy, and sometimes it’s a lot. These sessions are a chance to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and practice being present with whatever is actually here.

They’re also a rare opportunity to connect with others in a warm, nonjudgmental space where you don’t have to perform, impress anyone, or have it all figured out.

Whether it’s your first time meditating or you’ve been practicing for years, you’re very welcome here.
