Are you interested in or curious about meditation? Maybe you've tried it or thought about trying it, but haven't quite been convinced that it's for you. Or, maybe you've been practicing on your own, but are interested in the option of also practicing with others…

Nicole Grenier, Owner of Stowe Street Cafe in Waterbury, VT, has been practicing various forms of meditation for most of her life and she has recently completed her Meditation Teacher Training at the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Wellness. She is honored to begin sharing the many benefits of meditation in ways that are as welcoming, supportive, non-judgmental, and accessible as possible.

Her first offering of seated chair meditation begins Tuesday, September 10, 2024 from 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm. This will be a 6-week series where all are welcome to join for one session, all six sessions, or anything in between as it works for you.

All sessions are being offered on a drop-in basis (no need to sign up in advance) with donations on a sliding-scale welcome ($10 suggested donation per session). All donations will be used to help support the continuation of these offerings, while helping to also cover donations for those who may not be able to contribute financially at this time.

Nicole will greet participants at 3:45 pm, with practice beginning promptly at 4:00 pm. Kindly avoid arriving late in order to support and respect the practice of the group.

Each session will include a combination of guided/sound/mindful movement meditation and will follow the basic format below, however some times will be adjusted as needed:
- Welcome/Introduction: 10-15 minutes
- Guided Meditation/Silent Sitting: 20 minutes
- Integration/Closing: 10-15 minutes

The remaining 15 minutes will be reserved for any questions while closing out our time in order to head out together by 5:00 pm.

Donations can be made via cash/check the day of, or via Venmo (@stowestreetcafe).

Any additional questions may be directed to Nicole at: info@stowestreetcafe.com

Looking forward to practicing together!
