The Monday Night sitting group at Spirit Rock has been a welcoming refuge for the community to gather, hear the teachings of the Buddha and practice mindfulness meditation. During the pandemic, Spirit Rock is continuing to offer this group online via Livestream.

This 5-month journey weaves mindfulness, compassion, and nature-based practice with the real challenges of our time—grief, burnout, and the overwhelm of intersecting crises. Through contemplative practice and community support, you’ll develop the inner steadiness needed for long-term engagement.

Millions of people suffer daily with conditions associated with executive function challenges. Though commonly referred to as ADHD, these symptoms are often exacerbated by our complex, fast-paced, high-tech lives. Such conditions often leave people with a sense of self-doubt, shame, or unworthiness.

The good news is that with mindfulness, compassion, and with the application of skillful techniques, it is possible to understand and function more effectively with care and wisdom. Over the course of this half-day retreat we’ll explore navigating these challenges, how they interrupt our functioning, and how we can meet ourselves with wisdom, forgiveness and self-compassion.
