Meditation

 

 

 


Come use the zendo to meditate or reflect on your own or during group meditation times. Guided meditation CDs & CD player  are available for on-site use. (Check the maroon magazine basket next to the tea table.)

 

Now you can also use our mini-labyrinth, which is on loan to us from Cancer Connection:

 How can you use the mini-labyrinth?

All you need to do is start walking at the opening and follow the path to the center and back out again, as slowly as you can. (And don't worry about stepping on the lines!)  Walking the labyrinth is a great way to focus and become aware of your breathing and your movements, and you'll perhaps be surprised at how relaxing walking even this small labyrinth can be.  And how it can bring clarity to your mind, and even insights.  (Try posing a question to yourself, walking the labyrinth, and seeing what comes to you as you walk.)  In other words, this is a great way to start meditating, even if you call it walking!  We invite you to stop in for a visit whenever the Center is open.   Hope to see you soon!

 

 

Plan your own individual meditation retreat: 

Would you like to be able to do a one-day meditation retreat on your own?  Mountain Zendo is at your service!  You can arrange to come for all or part of the day.  Enjoy sitting meditation, walking meditation, take advantage of the mini-labyrinth, and relax on the comfy couch with a cup of tea.  In short, feel free to make the Center your home and refuge for the day!  Contact Susan for questions or to consult about how to plan a day at the Center!
