> Before the pandemic there was a group of meditators from various streams of Buddhism who gathered every couple of weeks to sit in silence together. That group is resuming now and will be meeting every couple of weeks at Down Dog Studio (every other Sunday at 1:00 p.m.). Many people have deepened their practice while we have been in isolation and are now looking up and remembering how nice it was to sit with others. Sitting together has a different energy and Down Dog Studio is a lovely place to gather.
>
> The next few gatherings are being posted here on Lopez Rocks in case there are others who are interested in joining in. Meditation practice is common across all the Buddhist yanas as well as many other religions and yoga. This gathering is oriented to those who already have a meditation or silent contemplation practice rather than toward beginners. Any practice is welcome as long as it is silent.
>
> The format is to sit for 45 minutes, then have a few minutes to meet or reconnect with each other.
>
> If you would like to be on the mailing list to be notified of future “sits”, send an email through Lopez Rocks.

> Down Dog Studio is at Midnight’s Farm, 3042 Center Rd., Lopez Island. https://www.midnightsfarm.com/yoga. Chairs, bolsters, blankets and yoga mats are available to sit on, and feel free to bring your own cushion or other meditation prop if you wish.
