CHICAGO MEDITATES - 8/24 - Holy Trinity/Zoom

Everyone is welcome to join our weekly meditation on Monday evening at 7:00pm. All levels of experience are welcome. **If you are new to meditation, make that known to the facilitator so we can provide some guidance for you.** We have up to 30 minute silent sitting sessions, so some level of acclimation to stillness is helpful. Though we are secular, you'll find Buddhism, Vipassana, and mindfulness are common themes here. THIS MEETING WILL BE LIVE AT HOLY TRINITY, 1218 ADDISON, CHICAGO, 2ND FLOOR, ST. MARK'S ROOM. The evening will include silent sitting meditation, walking meditation, a reading or recorded talk and time to reflect with one another. Some times there is very accessible Qigong as a way to tune into the body. Parking passes are available for the lot behind Missio Dei, 1242 Addison. (The lot is accessed from the alley a quarter block north of Addison on Magnolia, turning West). Additionally, 383 neighborhood parking passes are available for $1.
