Biography

Helen's interest in mindfulness and meditation came from a need in trying to regulate a boisterous class of 3rd grade students. What started as a survival strategy morphed into a deep love and passion for interfaith Buddhist practices and the Dallas Meditation Center. She has now been on this path for 2 years and counting and wants to share those benefits with others ♥️.

A meditation & teaching group for Young Adults (20s & 30s) facilitated by Young Adult co-facilitators. Each gathering includes beginner-friendly walking and sitting meditation, a song or two, Dharma teachings, sharing & discussion.

We come together to practice mindfulness in order to take care of ourselves, nourish happiness and contribute to building a healthier and more compassionate society. Practicing mindfulness, concentration and insight enables us to cultivate tolerance, non-discrimination, understanding and compassion in ourselves and the world.

As part of the Awakening Heart Community at Dallas Meditation Center, our meditation practice is inspired by the tradition of Plum Village and Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh. It is based on the Five Mindfulness Trainings, ethical guidelines that offer concrete practices of true love and compassion and a path towards a life in harmony with each other and the Earth. These guidelines are the foundation of our lives and represent our ideal of service.

Open to all levels of meditation experience, from beginners to more experienced meditators. We welcome persons of any spiritual tradition, including those not part of any spiritual or faith tradition.
