[Downtown Dharma Sangha Listserv] New Insights Dialogue Group

Good evening friends,

As mentioned a week back at one of the Downtown Dharma sessions, we are starting a new, peer-led Insight Dialogue (ID) practice group in DC.

Some details so far:

·       The small group (12 people) will meet every two weeks or so for about 1.5 hrs.   Each member will facilitate one session during the course of our time together, following this user-friendly guide. 

·       We are thinking of tentatively meeting on Wednesdays in the early evening (around 7 to 8:30 pm) in and around Northwest DC; we hope to have at least 2 members who can open up their homes for the group, so the exact locations are TBD. 

·       Depending on how soon we gather enough members, we can aim to start either the week of October 21 or October 28. 

·       The hope is that those interested can commit to attending at least 10 of the 13 sessions, and the plan would be to do 3 to 4 sessions this year and the remaining in early 2025, and accommodate regular holidays (Thanksgiving, end-of-year, etc.). 

The above are best guesses; specifics on venue, timing, and dates, will be determined by the group itself.

If you are interested in joining, please fill out the form here (or reach out directly if you have any questions I can help answer). There is no cost to participate.  No experience with Insight Dialogue is necessary, nor is any experience necessary in facilitation.  It is recommended, however, that participants do have some mindfulness practice to fully benefit from the group discussions.  

Alternatively, if you would like to join an ID group but have a preference for alternate neighborhoods, timelines, days of the week, etc., feel free to fill out the form and I would be happy to put all interested participants in touch in case they wish to start a separate group.

Kind regards,

Amitabh
