Other Programs

A meditation group meets every Tuesday, 7-9pm, to practice in the tradition of the Shambhala lineage. We meditate for approximately 75 minutes, then break for tea & discussion. If you have a cushion or meditation bench, please bring it as I have only a few available. Beginning meditation instruction is available upon request. Ask for Arel. There is no charge for meditation or for instruction.

Directions and entry instructions can be found by clicking on the Find Us button. I am teaching a yoga class from 5:30-6:45pm. I will prop the lower-level door open when yoga is over. Please try to arrive between 6:45 and 7pm. Feel free to bring or invite others who are wanting to meditate, regardless as to whether or not they have been introduced to meditation or Shambhala. Initial meditation instruction is available upon request. Questions can be directed to me at 317-840-8393 or ricgood@sbcglobal.net. See you Tuesday! - Ric (Arel) Good

Many people have expressed an interest in chanting, so let's get together to let raise our voices and to let our spirits soar, our bodies move, and our hearts rejoice. No musical ability or kirtan experience is necessary, just a willingness to have fun and potentially to touch the divine. We'll gather at Open Heart, Quiet Mind at 429 E. Vermont St.
(For directions click on the "Find Us" button on the left side of this page.) Enter via the lower-level entrance located beneath the front steps. Hope to see you there...and feel free to bring a friend.

And you are enthusiastically invited to attend the 5:30pm beginner yoga class prior to the kirtan. FREE! Just bring you heart, your voice, and a mat if you have one.

This is an opportunity to get together with other Thai and Shiatsu practitioners and students to review what you have studied, hone your skills and maybe learn some new techniques. Please let me know if you are coming so I can plan accordingly. Feel free to bring a friend to practice on if you wish. And bring your mat if you have one.
