Here we are... enjoying dinner at Greens Restaurant as we celebrate looking forward to beginning the 5th year that SFZC has provided this class.

These 1½-hour drop-in practice classes are offered to those who are interested in fine-tuning the practices introduced in the basic skills workshops taught throughout the year at SFZC and at other venues.

Attendance at one of the basic skills workshops is a prerequisite for participation in this class. Workshops that meet this prerequisite are: Transforming Depression and Anxiety, Mindfulness and Anxiety, Finding Ease and Cultivating Resilience.

The class begins and ends with meditation and includes time for Q & A and discussion. Different than a therapy group, San Francisco Zen Center is offering these drop-in classes with the intention to encourage the development of the mindfulness and compassion practices taught in the workshop framework and offers support for examining the links of conditioned patterns and our relationship to them.  Fundamentally, we agree that mindfulness practice provides an effective way to alleviate afflictive emotions and thoughts and that structuring the classes accordingly offers the most support.

This class meets weekly in 2016, with the exception of 11/24, 12/22, and 12/29.
