This “sangha” (community) gathering weaves together singing/chanting, moments of silence and contemplative practice, and gentle dharma reflection. No prior chanting or meditation experience is needed, and singing isn’t required either--listening is just fine! The intention of this sangha is to create a supportive, intentional space to slow down, open the heart, regulate the nervous system, and remember our shared humanity.

“Sangha” is a Buddhist term that means Community. During this hour we gather to honor each other’s presence, share our joys and concerns, listen to music/sing together, hear a short wisdom/dharma teaching, and engage in silent meditation and sharing on the topic of the teaching. We gather to practice mindfulness together. We explore what it means to live with more presence, more compassion, and more alignment with our deepest values. No prior experience is required, and there is no belief system to adopt. Just a willingness to show up, slow down, and pay attention, together.

This will be a great day to talk mental health, as artists (comedians, writers, painters, dancers, singers, instrumentalists, etc). This is a free event, but you must RSVP to attend. Hosted by "Move Your Music Forward" (moveyourmusicforward.com)
