Tricycle's Meditation Group, Weekly Meditations led by Beloved Buddhist Teachers

Tricycle’s Meditation Group for Tricycle subscribers provides weekly meditations and small group discussions led by renowned Buddhist teachers.

This May, Loch Kelly will lead us in Effortless Mindfulness, which is a simple direct Mahamudra style of mindfulness. It starts with the premise that the freedom, love, and awakening we are seeking are already here within us, as our true nature. The effortless mindfulness approach introduces “small glimpses.” We move from attention focused on the contents of our mind to resting as the context of our awake heart-mind. These glimpse practices can be done on the cushion or in the midst of our day by shifting awareness out of our chattering mind to discover a natural peace of mind. Loch will share ways to access a natural calm and ways to focus from effortless mindfulness from an open mind and open-hearted awareness. Please join Loch for these transformative meditations.

Each session will include a 10-15 minute talk and a 15-20 minute meditation practice. After each meditation, we will reconvene for either breakout group discussions or a Q&A with Kelly. The sessions will range from 45 minutes to an hour.

Here is the schedule for May: 

Monday, May 5, 11 a.m.–12 p.m. ET

Monday, May 12, 11 a.m.–12 p.m. ET

Monday, May 19, 11 a.m.–12 p.m. ET

Tuesday, May 27, 11 a.m.–12 p.m. ET

This series is free for Tricycle subscribers. If you aren’t one already, become a subscriber today to join us for this unique opportunity.
