Once per month, we do a talk and Q&A with a meditation teacher or other special guest.
The talk is on Zoom, but we also gather in person in BK for a watch party!
Come hang out, eat popcorn, watch the talk on the big screen, and ask the guest your questions!
This month's guest is Deborah Helzer.

About Deborah Helzer
Deborah Helzer first took up Buddhist meditation 30 years ago to reduce stress while working on her engineering degree. She has been teaching at IMS since 2004, as well as with the Insight Meditation Community of Washington, DC where she lives. She has studied and practiced with both western and asian teachers, including a year as a nun with the late Sayadaw U Pandita. Her teaching style reflects the influence of the 20th century Burmese master Mahasi Sayadaw and his emphasis on clear, non-judgmental awareness. Since becoming a mother, she has also been actively exploring practice within family life.
