April 15 Day of Mindfulness: Nowhere to Go, Nothing to Do

Saturday April 15 is our monthly Day of Mindfulness, at Riverside Church.  As we practice sitting and walking meditation, mindful eating, Dharma Sharing, and total relaxation we will explore what it means to have a practice of  "Nowhere to Go, Nothing to Do."

At one level, these words are an invitation to relax and be fully present at our Day; at another level perhaps they are an invitation and instruction on how to relate to our experience.
