Weekly Meditation

 

Meditation is the art of returning to the present moment with awareness — harmonizing body, breath, and mind while nurturing clarity and compassion. During study periods, we gather on Wednesdays for a 25–30 minute meditation before the study session begins. The group meets in a hybrid format, with both in-person and online options. You’re warmly welcome to join us for the meditation, the study, or both.

​

Weekly Wedensday Schedule:

Meditation begins at 5:30 PM (PT)
Zen study begins around 6:00 PM (PT)

Half-Day Sitting

 

The half-day sitting offers a great opportunity to deepen your meditation practice within the supportive presence of the community. It’s a time to settle both body and mind, allowing awareness to naturally arise and illuminate the present moment.

​

The half-day sitting is usually held on a Sunday from 9am to 12pm. During the half-day we engage in four 30-minute periods of zazen (sitting meditation), each alternating with 10 minutes of kinhin (walking meditation). The session concludes with a brief Zen service, including chanting and bowing practice.​ The sitting is led by Lucy Laoshi is is offered both online and in-person.
