🧘📓 Contemplative Meditation + Journaling Circle (Session 2) - 7:15–8:30 PM

Group meditation + meaningful conversation + quiet journaling.
No experience needed, but please arrive on time if it’s your first time.

Description :

This is a one-hour practice that actually fits into real life.
We read a short passage, sit in contemplative group meditation, talk briefly and meaningfully about what showed up, then journal while the mind is still calm enough to tell the truth.

This is not guided meditation narration (“close your eyes, imagine a beach…”).
In contemplative meditation, we start with a short reading and the teacher occasionally cues a concept from the reading during the sit.
It’s training the mind, not entertaining it.

If it’s your first time, please arrive right on time so we can explain the process before we begin.

The hour (exact timing) :
We start at 7:20 PM (not 7:15) to give everyone a few minutes to settle in.

- 7:15–7:20: arrive, settle, quick hello
- 7:20–7:35: contemplative group meditation (15 min)
- 7:35–8:00: meaningful conversation (25 min)
We use a talking stick so the sharing stays brief and intentional.
You can always pass.
- 8:00–8:20: quiet journaling (20 min)
Private writing. No sharing required.
- 8:20–8:30: gentle wrap-up

Important note about being late
Because the meditation starts at 7:20, late arrivals can be disruptive.
Please arrive on time.
