Stressed Out? Try a Little “Om” with Free Online Meditation Classes

The American Meditation Institute (AMI) is offering a free online Meditation and Satsang class every Sunday from 9:30 – 11 am.

The seated meditation practice is held in a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere: your home. Each Sunday morning program includes both a seated AMI meditation and satsang (a philosophical discussion led by Leonard and Jenness Perlmutter).

The seated meditation practiced at AMI is known as mantra meditation. You simply sit in a chair with your head, neck and trunk straight. Close your eyes and concentrate your silent attention on any name of the Divine Reality that you are most familiar and comfortable with. The seated silent meditation lasts about 20 minutes. Participants sit on chairs or cross-legged on the floor. The actual period for meditation begins with the sound of a bell. A reading and group discussion follow the meditation.

Loose, comfortable clothing is best. Most people dress casually. You will want to be mindful of the environment being a comfortable temperature, and pets put away unless you don’t mind attempts at distraction.

The Sunday AMI meditation and satsang offering is free. However, love donations are always appreciated. They help support all our teaching classes, workshops and visiting speakers.
