Photos from recent Day of Mindfulness (DOM)
Dear Sangha,
On Sunday Oct. 30 about a dozen of us gathered at the beautiful Kiwanis area of Elena Gallegos Open Space in the foothills of the Sandias for a Day of Mindfulness. It was a beautiful, peaceful day where we strengthened our connections with nature, our practice, and each other. We sang some songs, did some mindful walking, seated meditation, had lunch, and listened to some guided relaxation and a children’s book The Coconut Monk by Thay. Altogether it was a lovely day, skillfully facilitated by Bee and David. Here are a few photos.
Now meeting 4:00-5:30 pm Sundays, until March 12, 2023
Following the wishes of the Sangha, with the time change we will now be meeting from 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. on Sundays. This is so that there is still daylight for those driving home after the meeting. With the next time change on March 12, 2023 we will change back to 5:00-5:30 p.m. Please join us at the Albuquerque Zen Center, 2300 Garfield Ave. SE.
