Meditation

Meditation is taught in a variety of ways at the Shambhala Center. Its simplest form is rooted in the sitting practice of meditation where one works with the breath. We call this mindfulness/awareness meditation. Developing mindfulness cultivates a mind that rests calmly, and developing awareness cultivates a mind that sees clearly.

At the heart of our Center is the meditation hall, where we practice the discipline of sitting meditation that is at the core of all Shambhala activity. The practice of meditation has been taught for over 2,500 years as a vehicle for realizing the beauty and magic of the ordinary world without aggression or manipulation. Free meditation instruction is available for beginners or experienced practitioners.
