New York Now: Meditating in the City!
Event Information
Description
Mindfulness isn't just for retreats in the countryside – it's something that we can cultivate anytime, anywhere. Even in the middle of the city. If you've never tried it, this is your chance!
Join 50 monastics from Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's community to practice mindfulness in the heart of Manhattan.
Meet at ABC Home’s Deepak HomeBase where Thich Nhat Hanh's legacy calligraphies are exhibited at 10am for a 30' guided sitting meditation followed by walking meditation outdoors where we will practice sitting meditation and eating meditation. We will return to ABC Home for a Deep Relaxation at 2pm. Open to new and experienced practitioners.
Join us at any time!
