“Just this, now,” Sunday Starts at 7pm Alameda Sangha

Dear Friends,
 For something that’s basically simple, practicing mindfulness can be difficult.   It involves remembering, and we forget to do it.  It’s about the present moment, and we spend so much time in the past or future that we lose track of now, like a key we’ve misplaced.
This Sunday I’ll share a phrase that can help us regain a calm and wise alertness.  “Just this, now,” also offers reminders about the purpose and nature of mindfulness and how it can help us respond wisely to the way life unfolds.

Looking forward to seeing you all,
Rebecca
