Doors open at 6.30pm for a have a cuppa and catch up, then we sing together with a hot dinner after every rehearsal (cooked by our lovely volunteers). We particularly look forward to having birthday cake once a month! We will be singing together, loud and proud, every Wednesday, so come and join us!

Introduction to Zen
Introduction sessions are running both in person in Liverpool and on Zoom introductions. We’d encourage people to live within travelling distance of Liverpool to attend in person if possible as there are some parts of practice, such as the posture, that it is easier to learn in person. We have learned that one of the advantages of Zoom is that it has allowed people from all over the country and beyond to join us for introduction sessions and then to go on to sit with us regularly. By continuing to offer the introduction sessions online too, we hope to continue this.
Content includes:
Finding a stable and comfortable meditation posture
How to make meditation a habit, even in difficult times
Dealing with thoughts and emotions while sitting
What to expect when sitting with a Zen group, either online or in person.
Questions you have about the practice.
