Monday – Friday, 8:45am & 5:00pm CST
Hosted by Sisters Johanna & Henrita

Discover the profound stillness and clarity that daily meditation can bring to your life. Our guided sessions, offered each day, create a nurturing space for inner reflection, mindful presence, and spiritual connection. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or new to meditation, these gatherings provide gentle guidance and community support to deepen your practice. On the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays, a reflective open discussion follows the morning session, inviting you to explore your experience with others in a spirit of shared inquiry. 

Sundays, 9am CST
Facilitated by: Sara Neall

Join us each Sunday to explore LovingKindness practices from the Buddhist traditions.

Each session will begin with a brief dharma talk which will frame our practice. The meditation will be 20-30 minutes in length, followed time to ask questions and share experiences. The discussion period is optional with an approximate end time of 10am or earlier depending on the discussion.

The qualities of kindness, compassion, joy and equanimity help us to live in this world with courage. They help us to be a true friend to ourself and to others. They connect us back to an inner abiding that is a true refuge.

Cost: $60

During the four Mondays of August we will discover how to free ourselves and our families from a lifetime of clutter! The jacket cover tells us that this is a surprisingly invigorating process of clearing out unnecessary belongings, can be undertaken at any age or stage of life, but should be done sooner rather than later, before others will have to do it for us. With Scandinavian humor and wisdom our author encourages readers to embrace minimalism.

FULL MOON is in Constellation AQUARIUS. Its energies are ideal for deepening and personal growth. Time to be true to Self. North American indigenous fishing tribes called August’s full moon the sturgeon moon since the species appeared in number during this month. It’s also been called the green corn moon, the grain moon, and the red moon for the reddish hue it often takes on in the summer haze.

Seed-thought: I am what I most deeply desire. That which I most deeply desire I am. I give myself to Life.

Our world in both its heartbreak and its beauty, is inviting us, calling us to a new breadth and depth of being. Let’s welcome and support one another as spiritual pilgrims, each of us on an individual deepening journey. During our three-year Spiritual Deepening for Global Transformation commitment, we will travel inward together, inquiring into our conditioned beliefs:

• how we perceive the world,
• our relationship with nature,
• our concepts of the divine and transcendent,
• our experience of Spirit and Soul.
