Weekly Ongoing Meditations

Having an ongoing group to sit with can give strength and energy to our personal meditation practice – and help cultivate community! Our weekly and biweekly groups are facilitated by a Seattle Insight teacher or leader. Some are held exclusively online, while others are both online and in person. View our Weekly Practice Opportunities page to find out more.
