A Mindfulness Meditation & Knitting Mini-Retreat Online
Sunday, June 25
12:30-2:30 ET
via Zoom
Meditation and Knitting have so much in common and yet they are also completely distinct activities. You can be a meditator and not knit and you can be a knitter and not meditate. Or you can knit and meditate. What does it all mean?!
Cyndi will give a short dharma talk and then offer discussion topics such as project vs process; how doing/making something for yourself benefits others; how knitting and meditation relate to confidence and compassion, and how knitting informs meditation and meditation informs knitting - or do they
