Geoffrey Hamilton
Meditation Facilitator and Mindfulness Instructor
Learn the Buddha's original method of Meditation as taught by the Buddhadassa at Suan Mokh
Monastery, Thailand
Anapanasati,
or “Mindfulness of Breathing”, is the original method the Buddha utilized when he attained enlightenment under
the Bodhi Tree. This method was re-established and re-formulated by the Buddhadassa in Thailand in the early 20th century,
with the reinstitution of the “Forest” tradition. Geoffrey has been studying Buddhist meditation for 20 years,
beginning with Tibetan Shamata practice under Alan Wallace and proceeding with Vipassana (Theravada insight meditation) under
Jack Kornfield, Thich Nhat Hanh and others. In 2002, he received the teachings of Anapanasati from Ajarn Pho, the Buddhadassa’s
successor. Geoffrey has also taught Qi Gong, Yoga, and Tai chi, and elements from these practices are incorporated in his
Anapanasati instruction.
Geoffrey’s
Hebrew name is Eliyahu, and he has been teaching and studying techniques of Jewish meditation and contemplation since 1996.
Stay tuned for a class based on methods employed by the 12th century Kabbalist, AriZal! |

The Artists Way Workshop
The
Artists Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity
As you learn to recognize, nurture and protect your inner artist, you will be
able to move beyond pain and creative constriction. You will learn ways to recognize and resolve fear, remove emotional scar
tissue and strengthen your confidence. Damaging old ideas about creativity will be explored and discarded. Working with a
combination of experiential exercises, lecture, Q & A and readings, you will experience an intensive guided encounter
with your own creativity, your private villains, champions, wishes, fears, dreams, hopes and triumphs. The experience will
make you excited, depressed, angry, afraid, joyous, hopeful and ultimately more free.

SITS Center Ongoing Programs
Belly
Casting
Come create a lasting memorial to this most precious
event in your life! A pregnancy belly cast is a plaster cast made of an expecting mom's beautiful pregnant form. A belly cast is usually done
3-4 weeks before your due date, but you could also make multiple belly casts to capture the miraculous changes in your body
throughout your pregnancy. Many
couples enjoy making a belly cast or mask together, providing the father with a unique bonding opportunity with your baby.
And years later you and your child will enjoy sharing this beautiful creation together, perhaps even adding later 'touches'
shared by you and your child!
Open
Belly Castings
on the
3rd Sunday of every month

materials
