The Monks and Nuns will begin with an introduction to mindful breathing and a short guided meditation to calm and heal our bodies and minds. We
will share about the practice of mindfulness, how to cultivate peace and happiness in our daily lives by dwelling in the present
moment. Everyone is then invited to enjoy some vegetarian food together as we continue with questions and answers and informal discussion about bringing mindfulness, compassion and understanding into our everyday lives. We look forward to being with you!
