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.


No charge

Suggested Donation $10-15

Community Hall at Ruscombe Mansion Community Health Center


“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.


Free parking lot on the east side of Yellowwood Ave. and free street parking. Follow signs to the "Community Hall" on the ground level off of the parking lot.

Restrooms are located on the first floor hallway. Leave shoes outside of the Meditation Hall entrance. Back jacks, chairs, and small bolsters are available. Or if you prefer, bring your own meditation cushion. Masks are optional and suggested at times when Covid infections are on the rise. If you have cold or flu symptoms, please stay home and take care of yourself.


Please share this good news with others who may be interested.
