SUMMARY:Eastside Introductory Meditation Class Series (In-Person & Online)
DESCRIPTION:This introductory meditation class meets weekly for 6 weeks\, January 17-February 21 from 7-9PM\, PDT. It will meet in a hybrid setting\, both In-Person and Online simultaneously. \nWhen you register\, you will be required to choose between In-Person and Online. \nClass registration includes a Day of Mindfulness the Saturday after the last class\, February 24th. Please see dates to be aware of below. \nAbout Insight Meditation\nInsight meditation also known as mindfulness or vipassana meditation comes from the Buddhist tradition. It aims to free the mind from the distortions of self-centeredness\, negativity\, and confusion. Seeing life as a constantly changing process\, one begins to accept pleasure and pain\, fear and joy\, and all aspects of life with increasing balance and equanimity. This balanced awareness\, grounded in the present moment\, leads to stillness and a growing understanding of the nature of life. Out of this seeing emerges wisdom and compassion. \nIt is a moment-to-moment investigation of the mind and body process. Our experience is explored from a balanced and spacious awareness which allows the heart to flower in love. During these six weeks there will be meditation instructions\, talks about the philosophy of the practice\, homework assignments\, and time for discussion and questions. \nDates to Be Aware Of\nYour registration includes attendance at a Day of Mindfulness on Saturday\, February 24\, 2024. \nPlease note that registrations are being accepted up through the second class on January 24thw. SIMS registration volunteers are available until the event’s start time. Registration closes at the start of the event. \nIf you have a question about this class series or for the teacher\, please contact registrar@seattleinsight.org \nRegistration and Donation\nThe suggested event donation is $90 for the six-week series including the Day of Mindfulness\, with options for $120 as a benefactor and $60 for a supported donation. Following our tradition\, none of this donation will go to the teacher. Please consider offering teacher dana at the event to support their livelihood. (Dana is a term for generosity\, or freely offered giving). No one is turned away for inability to offer a donation.
