Have you wanted to add meditation to your daily routine? Have you heard about all the positive benefits of meditation and mindfulness? Often, when inspired by the health benefits, people try to add meditation on their own, and think; “this is too hard”, or “I can’t shut my mind off”, or “I can’t get comfortable” or “this is boring”, or “why am I doing this again”? This is a common experience. However, meditation does have many benefits and everyone can do it. Just like riding a bike or learning to lift weights it usually takes a bit of time, a group to practice with, a class to get you motivated, and an experienced instructor to give you knowledge, personal tips, encouragement, and support along the way.
I am passionate about helping others integrate meditation, and the mindfulness practices that go well with it, into their lives. These practices have absolutely changed my own life for the better. They are simple and can be learned by anyone, but often require support and guidance to start - as learning any new skill in life can.

Hello Dharma center friends!

We are planning on holding space in person tonight, but we wanted to give you a heads up that our son has had most likely the flu since Saturday. We did give him a Covid test and it was negative. He is on the tail end of it and feeling mostly better. Dusty and I both have our flu vaccinations this season and seem to be doing fine. If you are at all worried please feel free to stay at home. John is not available for a live talk tonight and we were planning on leading a meditation ourselves and showing a talk we watch in our 8 week classes by Lama Alan Wallace from Center for Contemplative Research in Crestone. I will put a link to the talk below and if you choose to stay home maybe you will have a chance to watch it.

Please know you are welcome if you’d like to come in person, and my son hasn’t been in the Dharma center side of the house. We have been running an industrial air purifier for days as well.

We hope to resume our normal in-person meditation and talk with John being live on Zoom next week and will continue until our spring break week on March 19th. On March 19th we will take a break from in-person at the Here and Now Center, but John will still be available on Zoom to watch at your house.
