We’ll kick off nature month with a holiday Monday picnic in Dufferin Grove Park.

With a mix of guidance and silent practice, explore the fine grains of feeling, sound, rest, surrender, play, loving-kindness, then let the insights build while activating them in a community of fellow explorers intent on taking what they learn on the cushion into their lives. Not a retreat. This is an ADVANCE!

The word ‘Nature’ can be a useful shorthand when we want to distinguish between the world of trees, lakes, mountains… and the world of, say, cars, smartphones, condominiums, pipelines, politics, etc. But whence* does that distinction – or any separation in our experience, for that matter – actually arise?

We’ll be visualizing an old-school hunt while learning about stretching our senses and awareness like spiritual spandex. In the second half, we’ll put your moving meditation skills to the test and explore how to reconnect with our prehistoric vibes on the regular.

Meditate and dance your face off at the best block party in the city! A meditation flashmob primes the party, then jubilation overflows onto the street all day.

Tune into the life force inherent in all living things by meditating on a simple seed, and explore the beautifully complex scents of nature!
