Nestled next to nearly 1,000 acres of blooming wilderness, right in the heart of Charlotte, we will find ourselves together in the present moment. Come recharge, reconnect with yourself and others while basking in the Spring glow of the forest. We will sit, walk, breathe and share the beauty of the budding Reedy Creek Park. Also, although this meditation group (Sangha in Sanskrit) is based in the teachings of Vietnamese Zen Buddhist Master Thich Nhat Hanh of the Plum Village tradition, people of all faiths and those with no spiritual tradition are welcome.Our day will include:Guided and silent meditationMindful Somatic MovementSongs that teach and remind us to practice mindfulnessOutdoor mindful walking in a beautiful forest setting (weather permitting)A sharing, reading or video about the practice of MindfulnessGroup Dharma sharingPotluck lunchIf the weather does not permit outdoor activities, we may remain indoors.Please arrive 5 to 15 minutes early so we can all arrive and settle in without too much commotion.We will meet for more of a formal practice from 10am to 1:00pm.However, after closing, those who wish to stay are invited for a mindful lunch together. Someone from the community sometimes prepares a main meal, but feel free to bring what you would like to share. There is refrigerator space. We eat in silence for about 15 minutes and then have time to just hang out and chat.Optional items to bring: A water bottle, cushion for sitting (we have some as well), a journal and an open heart.Also, on rainy days, bring a rain coat, boots you don't mind getting muddy and an umbrella in case we decide the rain is light enough to venture outside.We offer this event in the spirit of Dana (generosity of the heart), and there is no expectation for a donation. However, as we do have rent and bills to pay, everyone is welcome to donate money, food for the potluck or just help with washing up or cleaning up so that we can continue to offer this as a place of refuge for the whole community.Donation link: https://my.cheddarup.com/c/greatwoods-zen-donations/itemsWe look forward to practicing together with you! https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/68526af0-f2f0-11f0-a0d9-23f031643b6b-rimg-w1200-h675-dca49075-gmir.jpg Agenda?: 09:45 AM - 10:00 AMArrivalInfo: Please come a little early to settle and support a peaceful start for all.?: 10:00 AM - 10:10 AMShort Sitting MeditationInfo: A brief sit to unite body and mind and fully arrive in the present moment.?: 10:10 AM - 10:20 AMIntroductionsInfo: Greet one another, connect, and water seeds of joy together.?: 10:20 AM - 10:30 AMSomatic MovementsInfo: Gentle movement explorations to prepare the body for sitting.?: 10:30 AM - 11:00 AMSitting MeditationInfo: A longer silent sit to allow the mind to settle like a clear pond.?: 11:00 AM - 11:15 AMPractice SongsInfo: Mindful singing to cultivate joy, togetherness, and presence.?: 11:15 AM - 12:00 PMOutdoor Walking MeditationInfo: Slow, peaceful walking in nature, enjoying each step with calm and freedom (indoors if needed due to weather)?: 12:00 PM - 01:00 PMDharma SharingInfo: Heart-centered community sharing from lived experience.?: 01:00 PM - 02:00 PMMindful LunchInfo: Vegetarian potluck-style meal.
