Co-sponsored by: The Interdependence Project (IDP) and Sacred Earth Sangha of NYI
In-Person: Awake in Urban Nature Meditation
with Maho Kawachi
Saturday, June 8th 2024 | 9:30am to 12:00pm
Location: Roosevelt Island tram station at 59th Street/2nd Avenue
Roosevelt Island may not seem to be an obvious destination for a nature meditation gathering but, starting with the amazing view from the Tramway, one feels transported to a serene, surprisingly green, strip of land surrounded by water, in the shadow of the city.
Please join us for a guided meditative walk through the many green spaces of this island in the East River. While practicing walking, standing, and sitting meditation together, we will engage our five senses, notice thoughts, feelings, and reactions, and give ourselves an opportunity to open to our body, heart, and environment. The class will be conducted in Noble Silence. There will be time for sharing at the end. Beginners and seasoned practitioners all welcome.
Along with a tram and shuttle bus ride, we will walk about 2 miles totally. Wear comfortable walking shoes.
This event will be jointly celebrating “Ocean Day” with Hear On Earth Art Lab.
NOTE: This will be a donation-based event. Your generosity will be shared by The Interdependence Project and New York Insight.
