We will be Sitting on Easter

Boston Dharma Punx — Wed, 04 Apr 2012 19:20:02 +0000

That’s right, just because this Sunday is Easter that doesn’t mean we can’t be mindful. Our regularly scheduled weekly sit and dharma discussion will be taking place as usual, 4pm @South Boston Yoga. The topic this week is the second foundation of mindfulness (I could have used that last week as I sat seething in rage during our sit). Hope you’ll join us!

Weekly Sit and Dharma Discussion 3/11/2012

Boston Dharma Punx — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 21:11:19 +0000

It’s time to sit with the misfit sangha once again. The topic this week will be starting over. Whether in practice or in life (or in my case, both), we have all experienced times when we have to reset and restart to get things back on track.

This week we will have 30 minutes of sitting meditation followed by 15 minutes of walking and a Dharma talk. There will be ample time for questions and discussion at the end.

The address for our new digs is 36 W Broadway in Boston; right across from the Broadway T stop. There is also plenty of free, on-street parking. We will be meeting on the third floor. There are cushions and chairs available at the studio but in limited numbers so it might be good to bring your own if you feel so inclined. Meditate and Destroy!
