Mindfulness Meditation

9:00 AM, 2nd & 4th Sundays
Unity of Mesa Annex

If you would like to deepen your meditation practice and sit in meditation with an in-person group, join Karen Peifer in the Annex the 2nd and 4th Sundays before service. We will start with a reading and then sit for 20-30 minutes followed by a short discussion until 9:45 AM.  

​Everyone has a busy mind, but meditation is a skill to develop through ongoing practice. The mindfulness practice allows you to not judge those thoughts and to just sit with them, be aware of what they are, but just sit. Mindfulness meditation derives from many different traditions and although definitions and techniques are wide-ranging, we will focus on using the breath as the object of meditation, awareness of the thoughts without judgement and taking a few moments to just sit in the present moment. All are welcome regardless of experience.

"Mindfulness is the practice of meditation that focuses on bringing your attention to the present moment without judgement.”

Unity of Mesa Sangha

The Unity of Mesa Sangha Meditation Group meets every Tuesday from 10 AM until around 11:30 via Zoom. The meeting is based on the Three Jewels of Buddhism- the Buddha, the dharma - teachings - and the sangha-community. We begin with a short grounding exercise and then have a robust discussion based on a topic that is chosen by one of the facilitators, Tony LaMantia or Karen Peifer, or someone else who suggests a topic. The topics range from Thich Nat Hahn’s training and teachings, teachings from other Buddhist or humanist teachers and non-duality lessons based in Unity. We sit in silent meditation for 20-30 minutes and then share the bowl for closing comments. Everyone is welcome to attend and they can drop-in, participate in the discussion or just listen-in based on their comfort. No experience needed. 

All ages (Souls) are welcomed.
