Join Marisela Gomez for a daylong session of practice and discussion, hosted by Delaware Valley Insight.

We welcome attendance regardless of religious background or level of practice experience. This Day of Mindfulness will be an opportunity for us to practice together to strengthen the energies of discernment, peace and well-being in ourselves and our communities. Activities will include the practices of indoor and outdoor walking meditation, Deep Relaxation, Mindful Lunch, and sitting meditation. And teachings on mindfulness, sharing circles, and Q&A.

Dana (Generosity) will be well received and shared with Marisela to support her in offering this program.

This is a hybrid event; the in-person portion will be at the Summit Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia while the concurrent online portion will be via Zoom.
