Start your summer mornings with a silent mindfulness practice at East End Beach. Find balance as you align yourself with nature’s rhythms.
Upcoming Dates
June 18 / July 2 / July 16 / July 30 / August 13 / August 27
Most mornings, we drag ourselves out of bed only to be thrown into hectic and anxiety-filled routines. Join Kaneel every other week for a soothing morning practice where we’ll experience the gradual shift from dark to light and bathe in the first moments of the summer sun.
During each practice, we’ll come together in silence, just before the sun arrives, using the walk along the beach to slowly awaken the senses and notice our relationship to the land and elements. We’ll then branch off, finding a unique spot that calls to each of us, where we’ll sit and observe the movement and stillness of the land as we take in the panorama of the sun rising over Casco Bay. As the sun illuminates the beach, Davinica will lead a group sharing circle, where our first words of the day will be full of gratitude, acceptance, and community. Being present for our sharing circle is totally optional, and if you’d prefer to stay in silence, we welcome and encourage your presence.
Sign up to receive details about where to meet, what to bring, and news about your session.
