Not that there's anything wrong with folks over a certain age, they're as active and vivacious as the rest of us. Sometimes more-so. We just want to hang with people of a similar age. There are a lot of young …

Most of the people in the group have toddlers around three years old, and many have second children under 6 months of age. Because our meet-ups are often a …

This group was started to be the weekly group sit that many find indispensible for supporting a daily meditation practice.

So bring your cushion, zafu or bench …
