This September, we’ll meet outdoors for “SUNSET SANGHA” from 6:30pm to 8:00pm on the back patio of the NVUU. Please bring a lawn chair for patio seating, warm layers and/or a blanket, and, if you wish, a water/beverage.

This Tuesday evening we warmly welcome Syra Smith back to NVIM. Syra Smith is an artist, organizer and mindfulness educator interested in deep ecology and manifesting a culture where we can turn toward fearless abundance and generosity. Presently, she co-leads the Mid-Day Dharma Collective at SF Insight (Mondays at noon!) and proudly serves as Core Teacher with the San Francisco LGBT Sangha. Also a Community Teacher for East Bay Meditation Center and Founder of Oakland’s Dana Cafe, Syra teaches Insight Meditation and mindfulness throughout the SF Bay Area and beyond.
