June Half-Day Retreat with Chris Crotty — Metta: Loving-Kindness Meditation (6/1/2024) (In Person Only)
In personMetta (Pali) means loving–kindness, friendliness, or benevolence. Metta meditation and related teachings are integral to early Buddhist thought and practice, and are instrumental to a holistic experience of the Dhamma. As a cultivation practice metta makes concentration strong, enables the mind to see the inherent goodness in the myriad forms of life, and supports the development of insight.
This retreat is for anyone who wants to explore metta as an independent meditation practice, or who wishes to complement their vipassana, insight, or mindfulness practice with this ancient “heart practice.” Open to beginners and experienced meditators, everyone is welcome to attend. This retreat will also offer walking meditation instructions with the option of spending time meditating outdoors in the quiet tree-bordered property at CfMIM.

Covid Policy
While we are doing our best to follow expert guidelines for making the environment as safe as possible, the spread of the virus is ultimately beyond our control, so you should make your own determination as to whether it is appropriate for you to come.
Advance Registration is Required
Because social distancing means limiting the number of people in the meditation hall at one time, you must sign up in advance to attend. You may register weeks in advance or right before a class, but you won’t be able to register if we’ve already reached our maximum.
Face Coverings
Facemasks are not required but are recommended when social distancing is not possible. Please follow the Centers for Disease Control and Massachusetts state guidelines.
Maintain Social Distancing
Attendees are asked to mindfully maintain their distance from one another while on the property.
