Introduction to Zen Meditation Workshop
What is Zen? How do you do Zen meditation? How does it relate to work, emotions, family and relationships? How do you learn and apply mindfulness practices to daily life? What is the role of a Zen Center?

A two and one half hour workshop is offered eight times a year, usually on the first Sunday of the month (see schedule below) to provide small group instruction in beginning Zen awareness practice.
The workshop includes basics of seated meditation, various options for postures (cushions or chairs), techniques for working with breathing and observation of thought. It includes mindfulness practices in daily life.
