Ruscombe Community Presents…
Mindful Meditation is the art and science of an ancient practice for living with the challenges of these modern times. Each month, we will explore a mindfulness topic and practice skills that support awareness and acceptance of life's unfolding moments and that offer insights and wisdom to guide our engagement, decisions, and actions. Practicing with like-minded folks on the path together helps us travel much further. Let’s journey on the path together.

“If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” African Proverb
The Eightfold Path of the Buddha’s teachings offer us skills that can guide us towards greater equanimity. As we practice and become more skillful at taming our thoughts and recognizing our patterns of thinking, noticing the stirrings of emotions and body sensations, we are better able to pause habitual reactivity and make more mindful choices about how to respond effectively with greater understanding and compassion.
While a daily mindfulness meditation practice helps us cultivate more skillful means of quieting the mind and body, practicing in community as a sangha helps us to strengthen developing skills and apply them meaningfully in our daily lives and relationships with others.
