Mindfulness Programs & Resources

Mindful  Mornings

Tuesday and Thursday mornings, 8:30-9:15 am
Zoom

We offer twice-weekly virtual gatherings combining guided and silent meditation to develop our capacity for mindful awareness and to cultivate qualities of patience, gratitude, and compassion. Experienced CDT members lead each session, with once-monthly participation by Rabbi Toba. At the end of each session, those in mourning or observing yahrzeit have the opportunity to say Mourners Kaddish.

All are welcome, whether experienced in meditation or not. To join a meeting, click on the Mindful Mornings listing in the "Upcoming Events" section on the right sidebar on the home page. That will bring you to a Zoom link.
