SANGHAFEST – NVIM is Outdoors & on the Patio!
Tuesday evening sangha will be moving to the outdoor patio at the Unitarian Universalist church, August 8th through 29th, providing our NVIM community with an opportunity to re-connect with the natural world around us.

This Tuesday evening sangha will be led by Mike Coughlin. Mike is a public school administrator, trained mediator, and has been practicing mindfulness in the vipassana tradition for over 15 years. He has received training through Spirit Rock Meditation Center, Mindful Schools and is a Certified Mindfulness Facilitator through the Semel Institute for Neuroscience & Human Behavior at the University of California, Los Angeles. Mike has over 20 years of experience working with high-risk youth, most specifically in residential and day treatment programs, as well as years of mediation experience in Alternative Dispute Resolution.

NVIM is now meeting at the NVUU in-person only on Tuesdays at 7:00pm. Our Thursday Morning Meditation will continue to be offered on Zoom to support our valued on-line community.
