Sundays at 9:00am for Flow Into Stillness

Flow Into Stillness is a 75-minute introspective practice that begins with a 50-60 minute flow designed to guide you inward and help clear what’s been weighing on the body and mind. We close with 15–20 minutes of meditation, using various methods to return to our center and move a little closer to our dharma (fundamental nature) each time we meet. You’ll end in a comfortable meditation seat or savasana to align, reflect, and set an intention for the week ahead.
