MLP Weekly Groups See Growth – February, 2016
We are excited to see the growth of weekly groups as a way to support you in sharing your growth in mindfulness in person with others. We now have groups in three locations and a new group for our new Mindfulness in Recovery Program.
Those in the Durango, Colorado area can now take part in a group hosted by MLP Certified Teachers Cindy Schmidt and Tecumseh Burnett. A guided meditation is followed by discussion and support for creating your own consistent practice. Bring your questions and insights for manifesting a mindful practice and way of life.
We also excited that our Melbourne cofounder Mark Molony has reconvened the Wisdom on Wednesdays group after a short break. This program supports individuals who have completed the MLP Foundations Course and are looking to continue to develop their practice. The group meets on a fortnightly (2 week) basis. The group meditates together and shares insights into our individual daily meditation and mindfulness practices. Currently the group is reading B. Alan Wallace’s book “Minding Closely” and using the Mindful Life Community as a foundation for their daily intentional practices.
We are very excited to launch our new Mindfulness in Recovery program! This has been a vision of our co-founder John Bruna for many years and it has now come to fruition. Drawing upon his 31 years in recovery, experience as a substance abuse counselor, educator, Buddhist monastic, and mindfulness teacher, we have integrated the tools and resources of our mindfulness community with specific meditations and resources for people in recovery. To learn more about the program and the weekly group, see our news article announcing the program or the webpage dedicated to this new offering.
