Who comes to meditation classes?Young, old, men, women, straight and LGBTQ folks, the religious and non-religious, beginning and experienced meditators, and cultural background—all are Welcome!
-
Do I need anything to bring anything?Chairs are available at each location. If you prefer to use a yoga mat or cushion, please bring what you need to be comfortable. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that advocates that meditation and spiritual development should be available to everyone at no charge. Weekly classes are donation-based. Donations are directed to building a new center for Blue Lotus-Florida.
-
Where are the classes?At this time, we are using a number of venues. Most programs are in person and/or online. Please check the calendars for the location of your class. Class time usually consists of a meditation period (guided, silent, walking), a dharma talk, and a discussion time to answer questions.
