Pleasantville Community Synagogue continues its community-led in person meditation group. The group will focus on developing our meditation practice, learning about the teachings of the Dharma, and how these teachings can help calm our minds, increase joy, decrease suffering, and facilitate sacred community during these difficult times.
Instruction will be offered in meditation, followed by a reading and discussion offered by teachers and experienced practitioners from the community. All are welcome, and PCS membership is not required to attend. These meetings are freely offered, although donations to support PCS are welcome.
Contact organizers Rabbi Ben Newman at rabbibennewman@gmail.com or Daniel Blake at dblake2881@gmail.com with any questions, and feel free to spread the word!

Please join us for this unique approach to low impact movement. Feel yourself
move from the inside out… move all your joints and muscles, free your natural
breathing, create more space for yourself and stand taller! Find ease in a
supportive, nurturing, peaceful and playful environment. Set to music, these
unhurried movements are simple, practical, and profound. They are done
individually, in a circle and with partners. Most of all, we have fun!
Contact Adrienne to RSVP or with questions. Be prepared to bring a mat/blanket, and being able to get
up and down from the floor is preferable. arstonept@gmail.com
