Reed meditation went online just over a month ago. We were far from alone. Tricycle magazine has compiled a list of online meditation sessions<\/a><\/strong> that span the continent and even the globe. So whatever time zone you are in, there’s a chance to join together with others in silent and\/or guided meditation, paying attention to what is, what connects, noticing the thoughts that sometimes seem to say we are separate, and coming back what is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tricycle online meditation list<\/a><\/strong> is super-easy to use. It’s basically a rolling calendar with times, time zones (pay attention, y’all), sponsors, and web links.

Prefer to meditate with other Oregonians? Check out the Zen Community of Oregon<\/strong> and the Portland Insight Meditation Community<\/strong>. Want to share your attention to the present moment with practitioners at well-known western centers of Buddhist practice? Check out the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies<\/strong>, Bodhi College<\/strong>, and Nyingma Institute<\/strong>. How about centers of higher education? Mindfulness Center at Brown<\/strong>. Or, skip the Buddhism altogether and lower your stress level with the founder of MBSR (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction), Jon Kabat-Zinn<\/strong>.<\/span> See all this and more at the Tricycle online meditation list<\/a><\/strong> (I’ve also added a link to this list on our Sit Now<\/a><\/strong> page).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
