Beginner Meditation
with Leslie Forstadt

This 8-week series will introduce Insight (mindfulness) meditation through practice and discussion. We will develop awareness, compassion for self and others, and practice quieting the mind. No experience necessary. The meditation practice is nontheistic, compatible with any spiritual path, and will help develop mental clarity and inner calm.

Please bring a blank journal to use as a meditation journal.
Recommended (but not required) class materials: Insight Meditation by Sharon Salzberg and Joseph Goldstein (2001, Sounds True)

Leslie Forstadt loves movement, including dance, biking, hiking, and yoga. Throughout her life she has returned to yoga to find balance, quiet, and a reminder to come into the present moment. Locally, Central Street Yoga and Sewall House Retreat helped her further her yoga practice over the last 3 years. This deepening practice included enrolling in a teacher training at Namaste Institute in Rockland, Maine, where she completed a 200-hour yoga certification. She is interested in yoga for physical and spiritual healing, and through her teaching she incorporates Yin and Insight Yoga in the hope to create space for others to listen to their bodies and appreciate their own internal wisdom. And she thinks it's very fun to play, never forgetting the healing power of a hearty giggle. Her website is Inhabit Yoga.
