PMC Meditation and Emotional Wellness Support group
Description: Join us to enhance your applied meditation practice and share lived experiences while finding support in a safe space. This group meets twice a month on Mondays at 7:30 PM (it will alternate with the book club) starting 4/11/22. It will be hosted by
Nalaka Gooneratne. We will have a hybrid format, so participants can attend either in-person at PMC or via Zoom based on their personal preference. We'll begin with a 10-20 minute sitting meditation, then transition to a discussion/support group for 40-60 minutes. Participants can share challenges they've experienced, offer advice, and discuss application of mindfulness strategies, incorporating practical guidance from the early Buddhist texts (suttas). Please contact Nalaka Gooneratne (f448@protonmail.com) if you are interested in attending, and feel free to share this invite with others you think may be interested in joining in person."

Wonderful it is to train the mind,
so swiftly moving, seizing whatever it wants.

for a well-trained mind brings happiness
