I began practicing meditation 16 years ago, mostly in the Buddhist vipassana/ insight tradition. I'm currently training to become a mindfulness meditation teacher.
Sessions will be inside, with plenty of space to spread out. Unvaccinated people will be required to wear masks; vaccinated people may do as they feel comfortable. Vaccinations are strongly encouraged.
