Meditation is an ancient practice of letting go and discovering our true nature. Step away from the distractions and join me for a nature immersed experience of sitting and walking meditation in the forest. I will give a brief dharma talk and meditation instruction to help develop a connection with the Earth and the inner landscape of your mind and body. Practices will enhance the ability to let go, find stillness, and a deep sense of inner peace. 

* Bring a ground cover blanket and water. 

* You are invited to join the group for lunch at a local tavern after the event.
