Saturday Morning

10-11:30am Central Time / 8-9:30am Pacific

​

To help us make the transition from zoomed to in-person group practices, and also to provide a cyber-sangha for those practitioners left behind when the universal zooming ends, the North American teachers will institute weekly zoomed practice led by a rota of North American teachers. 

 

The teachers have agreed to start our exploration with a four-week rota of Mondays at 7:30 pm and Saturdays at 10 am (Central time) (= 2 meetings per week), and run the cycle for three rounds, at which time we will assess and adjust if and as needed.

The model we are using is that provided by the Samatha UK Wednesday pm practice. The only regularity there is that it always includes a practice (of some kind), but otherwise each teacher is free to arrange the session in any way that seems right to them, the one suggestion being that staying with an hour and a half is usual best practice.
