OCEAN OF COMPASSION BUDDHIST CENTER

In-Person Programming has resumed at the Ocean of Compassion

Welcome back to the Center! Please join us at 6:00pm on Wednesdays for

Somatic Movement with Bay Thongtheppairot
followed by Guided Meditation with a rotating roster of meditation leaders.

Somatic movement is a form of mindfulness through movement. Non-weight bearing movements are done on the floor slowly without force. This therapeutic practice helps release stress and fatigue, and improves energy flow in the body. Meditators may find this practice beneficial prior to a seated meditation. No prior experience with yoga or meditation is required. Please bring a yoga mat, and wear comfortable clothing that allows for free movement.
