OPEN EMBRACE MEDITATIONS

Buddhist Bell Bowl for meditation

Holding life in an open embrace -- that's my intention. Developing the skills to do so is also my focus as a meditation teacher. If you would like to explore the possibilities of finding more ease and joy in all seasons and situations, please join me in any of the following ways:

Join an ongoing class on Thursday mornings in San Rafael, CA. Class details.

Receive personalized instruction one-on-one. Whether you are just starting to meditate or have been meditating for years, you can benefit from this focused attention, clarification and refinement.

Gather a group of interested friends or community members for a new class. I can guide you in this endeavor to whatever degree is needed.

Read the blog of dharma talks. If you are just beginning, please start with the archives and work forward. At any time you have an issue of concern, check out the labels and find one that's suitable for you at this time. And if you would like to follow along with the talks as they are taught, ask to be added to my email list to receive notification of weekly postings.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Stephanie Noble

“When teaching the dharma my intention is to follow the advice of Thich Nhat Han who tells teachers to:
"Use language, analogies, stories and references that keep the dharma alive in this moment rather than stuck in history, but be sure to stay grounded in the absolute truth of the dharma, and never compromise, muddy or dilute it.”
                                                                                  
-- Thich Nhat Han
