Welcome to NORTHWOODS MINDFULNESS COMMUNITY.
The Sangha has been in existence since 1996 under the guidance of Beverly Yates with Jim Bean as an associate teacher. We became NMC in 1998. This community is dedicated to the practice of Mindfulness in daily life and living a life of presence, kindness, and loving, compassionate awareness. We have recently made some changes in that we no longer are offering weekly meditations in Toronto. We do offer Day Long Meditations every second month at St. Joseph's Health Center in Toronto as well as two Retreats per year.
The next day long is Saturday May 26th at St.Joseph's from 10am until 4pm. The doors open at 9:30am. Please review the day long instructions under the heading "Retreats" for more details.
Jim will be offering the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course from March 28th - May 30th in Schomberg, 30 minutes north of Toronto. Please call Jim at 905-9366553 for details or download the flyer.
We are still in transition and as the way becomes clear there will be other offerings in the future. We thank you for your patience and understanding as we revision our lives. Our dear Sangha is always in our heart/minds and we miss having weekly contact with you. Hopefully ,in the future , we shall see each other more often -- keep checking the website for updates and changes.
Make sure to check the site regularily for further updates.
