As we approach the still point of the winter solstice, you’re invited to pause and rest in the quiet turning of the season. Together, we’ll light candles, set gentle intentions, and settle into an immersive 60-minute Frequency Sound Bath—a meditative listening experience designed to nourish both body and mind. No registration necessary! Donations welcome; any funds collected will be split equally between the Dharma Center and Facilitator.

New Year’s Intentions Workshop

Saturday January 3
9 AM – Noon

Hybrid

January is when many people set intentions for the new year. Can we do this from a place of mindfulness and not self-judgment? This workshop will include guided meditations, journal exercises and a meditative inquiry from Tara Brach’s book Radical Compassion. The day will be held in companionable silence to allow us to each stay tucked into our own experience. Please bring a journal.

Dharma Book Club

Monday January 5
1-2 PM

In Person

Join us for a low key, informal book club/discussion group on the first Monday of each month. No leader, no study questions, no pressure if you didn’t have time to read the book. Or didn’t finish it. Show up anyway. All are welcome. No registration necessary. January’s Book is Braving the Wilderness by Brené Brown.
