SUMMARY:Quiet the Mind and Open the Heart: An Introduction to Zen Buddhist Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Find spaciousness and stillness through meditation. Join Linda Shinji Hoffman for an introduction to Zen Meditation. We will meet in the studio and begin with ‘finding our seat’ whether on a cushion\, meditation bench or chair.

After this introduction\, there will be a guided meditation that will move participants into silence and also time for questions and sharing.
