For those new to meditation, those who have tried meditation without

practice. Practice sitting with ease, as you discover simple, effective
tools for quieting the mind. Receive support for trouble spots along
the path. This class also serves as a nice introduction to yogic
philosophy for yogis who want to better understand why we do. May be

Meditation Tune Up-
Drifting from your regular practice or finding it a bit stale? Perhaps
you have encountered new or recurring challenges in your practice or in
your life. Maybe you are simply drawn to diving deeper in the company
of others. If any of these things apply to you, then this is the course
for you. Jump start your mediation practice with three weeks of group
meditation, discussion, chanting and philosophy. Leave feeling
refreshed and with renewed commitment to your personal practice.
