Before you shake your head and tell me, “Meditation doesn’t work for me,” just take a deep breath and let it out slowly. There are so many styles of meditation and research has shown us that it’s incredibly effective at helping us thrive in these changing times. Every month, I’ll share a different style of meditation with the group. You CAN meditate and I’ve love to show you some ways you can help yourself with this very effective form of self care.
Meditation gathering at my Oakwood Sq/ UU studio on the first Tuesday of the month- 6-7:00pm. Gathering is by donation.
I’ve taught meditation for many years and have found that this flexible format of taking excursions into many different styles has been so effective. When you attend, you are welcome to try something new with us, or follow your own practice. We find we can all generate calm, peace and compassion in many ways. Handouts below are from a group I led in Milwaukee a few years ago.
- Meditation Basics handout – a short overview of basic meditation practices that might help you get started… or restarted.
- 30+ Mindfulness Practices – Not all meditation is seated, silent practice. Here’s a list of 30 plus ways you might incorporated mindfulness practice into your day.
- Why do I teach meditation? – maybe some insight into how I work and how groups get started. Hint… not terribly formal! And often it works quite well.😊

- We used a color projector in our group. For those interested, It’s a Rossetta Nebula projector. Here’s a link to their website. I could find their Northern Lights version on the website but the one I brought was a Nebula projector with the circular image. I did find that one still on Amazon. Have fun!
