Introduction to Vipassana (InsighT) Meditation - Spring 2026
The Spring Introduction to Insight Meditation Class will be offered by Barb Lahman and Tammy Dyer from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM starting April 6 and running until April 27.
The course will provide fundamental instruction in Insight Meditation, with an emphasis on mindfulness practice of awareness of breath, feelings, emotions, and thoughts.
Explanation and discussion of the teachings central to Insight Meditation are part of each class. The course is appropriate for beginners as well as experienced meditators who wish to maintain their “beginner’s mind.”
Because many things in life are beyond our control, it is crucial to take responsibility for our state of mind. The only real antidote to our own personal difficulty and sorrow is to see them clearly. Insight practice helps us to see our fears, anxieties, and confusion more clearly. With practice, we begin to see that it’s not so much what is happening in our life but how we are relating to what is happening.
Insight Meditation trains the mind to be mindful of what is happening, when it is happening. When we see our experience more clearly, we become better able to make choices about how we might live our lives with less stress and anxiety. As the mind settles and sees more clearly into difficult situations in life, the qualities of love, compassion, and wisdom naturally arise.
Classes will be held from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM on Mondays, April 6, 13, 20, and 27. For more information contact Barb at lahmanb@gmail.com. If you are interested in participating in this class that is “freely offered” (on a donation basis), please enter your contact info here:
