Mindfulness Meditation with Ashley Sharp

Details:

For millennia, people have been coming together outdoors to sit on the earth in nature while cultivating presence and ease. Each class will start with a few minutes of gentle qigong-like movements to release tension, regulate the nervous system, and promote embodiment. Mindfulness meditation instructions will be given, and the meditation will be partially guided, followed by a short wisdom teaching to apply to your everyday life. You can recline in the grass and gaze at the sky or sit on a chair or cushion (please bring something to sit or lie on).

Because we are practicing outside in a public garden, the practice will be open and inclusive of the environment and all of the possible distractions, such as seals barking and foghorns. It will be good practice for life! This class will explore topics such as staying steady in uncertain times, the interconnected, abundant nature of the world, and cultivating gratitude and other positive psychological states.
