This is an ongoing weekly class – review of core ideas and practices, introductions to new ideas & practices

This weekly course is for people who have taken Around Town DC’s Introduction to Mindfulness & Meditation course or a similar basic class and who want to sustain or build equanimity.  Beginners are encouraged to take the intro course if they do not have any mindfulness and meditation practice.

Like constant gardeners, we cultivate our capacity to be with the most difficult questions in our lives, as well as our capacity to relax and be happy, despite everything.  With the simple practices of mindfulness and meditation, we can experience increasing moments of calm that transform how we live each day.  One breath is all that is required to experience healing.  Many breaths, much healing.

Kaili Mang Jeyarajah completed her certificate in Mindfulness & Meditation Teaching through the Awareness Training Institute and the Greater Good Science Center at the University of California at Berkeley.  Her mindfulness training began and continues in the Plum Village tradition of Zen master Thich Naht Hanh.  A former interior designer and mother of two teen boys, Kaili is now a weekly M&M teacher with AroundTownDC, running intro classes and continuing practice opportunities.  She is also a member of Insight On the Inside, where she facilitates classes at a women’s reentry facility and is active on their Anti-Racism committee.
