Sunrise Meditation Online
Wednesdays 7am – 7:45am
Arrive on your cushion in the stillness of the morning and begin your day with a settled body and open mind. The session will begin with brief teaching and instructions informed by the Buddha’s teachings. Some guidance is offered during stationary meditation practice (seated or reclined) which is about 30 minutes. For those who have the flexibility in their schedule, there will be time for discussion (inquiry) until 8:00 a.m. Please feel welcome to attend even if you need to sign off early.
Earth Meditation … in person: Sundays from 8:00 to 9:00 a.m. – resumes September 2026.
In Hillcrest Park, Guelph – drop in, rain, snow or shine. Some weeks commitments arise that don’t allow me to be present. I hope that you will practice anyway. Meditation can help with uncertainty and pain we are experiencing. Practicing outdoors, we are invited to cherish this world and to meet ourselves with kindness and compassion as we navigate these challenging times. Seated or walking on the earth we directly experience how we are supported each moment by the earth. We are not separate from the earth and her creatures, we are ourselves nature. From this steady place we might realize how to care for the earth as we care for ourselves. We may even be inspired to engage in eco-activism. Simple instruction and support offered. All are welcome to practice sitting, standing or walking. Freely offered.
Private Meditation and Yoga
Private sessions offer an opportunity to build a regular practice catering to your specific needs and integrating mindful movement and mindfulness meditation. I work with individuals of all experience levels to create a plan supports how life is in this moment. In the past, I’ve found it meaningful to work with students living with injury and serious or terminal illness.
Private group sessions are also available.
Contact me to discuss whether you might find this might be supportive.
