Meditation & Reflections with Mike Coughlin

November 8, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

NVIM is now meeting at the NVUU in-person only on Tuesdays at 7:00pm. Following the current COVID guidelines in our community, masks will be optional. Full vaccination is strongly recommended to attend. (See complete Guidelines below). Our Thursday Morning Meditation will continue to be offered on Zoom to support our valued on-line community.

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.

New NVIM COVID Guidelines for Attendance (updated 10/1/22):

  • Full vaccination (2 COVID shots and at least booster) is strongly recommended.
  • Social distancing between chairs will be maintained for those who choose.
  • Masks are OPTIONAL. If you feel comfortable, you do not need to wear a mask. If you are a vulnerable person, or live with a vulnerable person, consider wearing a well-fitting mask during sangha.

When NOT to attend sangha:

  • If you have tested positive for COVID, until the 11th day after your symptoms first started or you tested positive (whichever comes first). This is in an abundance of caution and consideration for our older sangha members and those with chronic health conditions.
  • If you have any symptoms of COVID, unless you have had a valid negative test.
  • If you have been exposed to COVID, until you have tested on day 5 and are negative.

These guidelines are to protect the health of our fellow community members (see this link for more current guidance from the CA Department of Public Health): https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/COVID-19/HomeAndCommunity.aspx
