Welcome to the St. John’s Shambhala Meditation Group
The St. John’s Shambhala Meditation Group is part of Shambhala, a global community of urban meditation and rural retreat centers founded by Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. Our group presently meets at 120 LeMarchant Rd in St. John’s where we offer a periodic teachings and training workshops, and a variety of in depth Buddhist and Shambhala programs.
Meditation: Our Core Practice
The practice of meditation is the heart of all programs offered by the St. John’s Shambhala Meditation Group. Meditation is a way of slowing down and getting to know yourself, a way of making friends with your life and developing strength of mind, and a way of synchronizing body and mind in the present moment. It is a way of becoming fully present and appreciating your world.
We offer a free Learn To Meditate session on the first Tuesday each month.
These sessions are still available through video conference on the Zoom app.
Please contact us at [email protected] to make arrangements for meditation instruction by appointment if you are not available for one of the scheduled sessions.
