Introduction to Zen: Thursday, September 4th, 2025, from 6:30-7pm.
Have you read about Zen and meditation, but have never actually done it and want to try?
Are you doing meditation at home, but wish to supercharge your practice by sitting with other, like-minded people?
Do you want to sort out how to navigate a difficult world more effectively?
Are you interested in learning more about Zen and how it might help you?
Good news! The Great Lake Zen Center will be holding Introduction to Zen sessions the first Thursday of each month. Our next session will be held at 6:30pm on Thursday, September 4th, 2025. Our location is in Unity Center, 1717 N. 73rd St, Milwaukee, WI 53213. GLZC Vice-Abbot Laura Otto-Salaj will talk about the origins of Zen meditation, what we do in a Zen Center, and why we do it, as well as brief instruction on different forms of meditation practice.
If you want to give meditation a try, our weekly meditation practice will be held from 7 to 8pm, following the introduction. If you have any questions, please email us at [email protected], or me (Laura) at [email protected]. We hope to see you there!
