Monthly Meditation Workshop - First Wednesdays

January 2nd—December 4th

Room: Main Shrineroom

Pioneer Valley Shambhala Center offers a regular monthly meditation workshop for both new and experienced meditators.

Those new to meditation can learn the technique and practice of mindfulness/awareness (shamatha/vipassana) meditation in a supportive group setting.

If you already have some meditation experience you’ll be able to practice with a group and reenergize, fine-tune, and deepen your practice.

Led by a team of long-term meditation instructors, these monthly workshops offer everyone the chance to share experiences, ask questions, and receive guidance and support for cultivating and maintaining a regular, ongoing meditation practice.

Co-facilitators: Joe Arak, Elizabeth Peterson, Michael Stephens.

Pioneer Valley Shambhala Center’s Statement and Commitment

The Pioneer Valley Shambhala Center is a community of meditators and dharma practitioners committed to the Buddhist path of awakening and compassion. Our community is experiencing deep heartbreak and confusion at the news of sexual misconduct and abuse of power by Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, Shambhala’s lineage holder, as well as questions of accountability among his inner circle.

While we are engaged in a process of discerning how to relate to the upheaval and transformation of the international organization of Shambhala, we remain committed locally to teaching and practicing meditation, and to engaging together as a community. We welcome you to join us in practice and solidarity.

Shambhala, Shambhala Training, Shambhala Meditation Centers, Shambhala Center, Shambhala Art, and Way of Shambhala are registered service marks of Shambhala USA.
