Sitting on Sundays is a one-hour online practice rooted in old spiritual traditions offered in a new kind of way. It’s a place to slow down, sit a bit, wrestle with and wonder about and grow a bit more human and a lot more good at home, at work, and in the world.
Details:
Sitting on Sundays is a once-a-week virtual gathering (Zoom).
Time: *7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time.
Registration: $20 per month.
Registration includes a bi-weekly Sitting Between Sundays e-mail with food-for-thought and at-home practices to cultivate connection, tend the soul.
Please note: there is no pressure or requirement to attend every session. If you are unable to make it to a Sit? No guilt. There is no attendance taken, no recordings made. Just come when you can.
Sitting on Sundays started in the Fall of 2019 in the Library of the Big Stone House—an in-person practice that one person described as “a mashup between a Quaker meeting, a Buddhist sit, an AA meeting…and a little bit of hootenanny thrown in for good measure….” In March 2020, this simple practice went online as a way to keep people connected during the pandemic…and we’ve been meeting online ever since with regular attendees Zooming in from the five times zones across Canada and the United States.
As a long-time Sitter recently said: “This practice gives me hope for the world. More than that, it gives me hope for myself and the people around me…and that’s no small thing. I wish everybody had something like this to be a part of, a community like this to belong to. We’d all be better off for it.” We agree. It’s such a simple practice, really. But don’t let the simplicity fool you: these sessions are about as good for the soul as anything we’ve ever experienced.
