Join Jim on the first Monday of each month for a group mindfulness session, including quiet sitting, guided meditation, and time for discussion and questions. The current theme is Dharmic Reflections on Aging in the 21st Century:

​

​From the moment of birth we begin to age; aging is part of getting old.  As modern culture has advanced, our view of getting old has changed.  Since the Buddha's time the teachings of The Four Ennobling Truths of Suffering have not changed much; the acceptance of aging as an undeniable fact of life was central to the Dharma, the discourses on the River of Change and the Ocean of Compassion have been at the core Buddhist wisdom for over 2500 years. Over the next few months we will be offering reflections on the inner work of aging, the spiritual dimension of aging as a guide to responding to our own fragility and impermanence with a compassionate heart.​

All self-identified women and non-binary people are invited to gather in community to explore the dharma, share our wisdom and cultivate a brave and tender space of belonging.

Each meeting will include a period of meditation, followed by a brief dharma offering to seed inquiry, and time for small and larger group sharing. This will be an ongoing, in-person group that will meet Tuesday evenings from 6:30-8pm.
(There may be potential to open this group up to a hybrid online and in-person format in the
near future)​

With DOUG PULLIN (he/him)​

​

7/9/25: This week, we’ll explore how spiritual practice comes alive not when life goes our way, but when it doesn’t. True growth often blossoms in the midst of difficulty—when we meet challenges with mindfulness and compassion, without believing the mind that says, “It shouldn’t be this way.”

​

Through meditation, Dharma reflection, and shared presence, we’ll practice embracing life as it is—perfect in its imperfection. As Jack Kornfield writes, “The point is not to perfect yourself. It is to perfect your love.”

​

Join us for an evening of guided and silent meditation, Dharma talk, and group sharing on the deep freedom of accepting non-perfection.
