In Person Day of Mindfulness
June 6, 2021 @ 9:30 am - 12:30 pm
Most Sundays throughout the year we gather for a Day of Mindfulness.
We will have sitting meditations, outdoor walking meditation, practice guidance and discussion. (no potlucks, yet!)
Opening During Covid-19: We are happy to open our doors once again to the public for these nourishing, heart-felt and refreshing events. We have been extremely careful during the pandemic and feel happy to welcome friends who have been and continue to be careful. If you have symptoms or might have been exposed to Covid-19 or other respiratory viruses, we ask that you stay home and practice with us in your hearts. If and when we do go indoors, we ask everyone to wear a mask. Indoor spaces will be ventilated with windows cracked open and an air purifier running, so please wear very warm layers – the windows will remain open even if weather is cold outside. There will not be much ability to practice physical distancing in indoor spaces because of the size of the halls, but there will be a couple areas to sit with further distance from others, so we welcome you to come if this feels okay for you. The outhouses will be available. And yes, please bring a mask to wear when in close proximity to others (even outdoors, and even if you are vaccinated). We will continuously update this information depending on current conditions and local information. Thank you so much for your presence and care.
We will cap registration at twelve guests. Please email us at morningsunoffice@gmail.com if the form is closed and you would like to come.
Sign up for our Weekly E-Letter for details on themes of practice for the day and updates to our practice schedule.
$10-40 Suggested Contribution (to practice together is the most important gift, so if your current financial situation is challenging please still come and don’t worry about making a donation). Please sign up on the simple registration form below (so we can be prepared to receive you). Please arrive 5-10 minutes early so you can settle in before we begin.
