A Hidden Jewel in Wollaston
Nestled on the second floor of Healing Tree Yoga you will find a real gem. A quiet space .... designed to inspire, nurture and support a meditation practice so that each individual might find his/her own quiet mind.
Every Tuesday night at 7:15 pm you walk into a sacred space where people are sitting on cushions and chairs with their eyes closed and meditating. No chattering just sitting and being present to this moment.
Eileen Shaw has been offering this quiet space since 2009. Where people can drop in whenever they like. Group meditation is offered by donation only. Participants give what they can in the tradition of Meditation teachers. Historically a meditation teacher accepted all who came to them, and the students gave what was within their means. It was the duty of the teacher to give the Gifts and learning and experience that had been given to him or her, and it was the duty of the students to support their teacher in that Giving.
Group meditation has many benefits for every level of practitioner. Everything is better when shared—including meditation. Meditating with a group helps to develop a habit. A meditation group can provide the necessary encouragement for developing a consistent practice. It helps you find answers addressing difficulties with the practice and provides feedback regarding experiences that arise during the meditation process.
Eileen is a dedicated practitioner since 1971, and has been guiding groups and individuals since 1998 in both private and in professional settings. Her skills have been shaped by years of daily practice, as well as Meditation training and studies in Tai Chi. She regularly works in both group settings and as a one-on-one teacher. She has designed programs for both adults and children, helping all of her students find methods of practice that resonate with them and help promote improved focus, self-awareness and stress-reduction.
