About the event
Join Capital Region Community Sit for a Half Day Meditation Retreat
We will be practicing stillness and moving meditation through periods of sitting, walking, dharma sharing and guided practice. A meditation retreat is supportive of deepening your practice by cultivating awareness and concentration over a longer period of time.
All meditators – both emerging and experienced - are welcome. The day will be in noble silence which allows for dharma conversation as well as support for turning inward (we will share what this means at the start of our half-day of practice). Tea and snacks will be provided.
Suggested registration fee: $5 to 25 to cover the costs of the space (payment by cash or Venmo the day of the retreat). No one will be turned away for lack of funds. Please register by 3/28/30 by e-mailing Rebecca at undergroundalchemy@gmail.com
Come as you are and find your way home. There are many traditions of meditation. We practice Insight Meditation or Vipassana, which is the oldest of the Buddhist meditation practices. Vipassana means “seeing things as they truly are” and is a cultivation of mindfulness or awareness through practice.
