Invitation for
Meditation, relaxation and more
Three times a week: Thursdays at 7 pm, Saturdays at 11 am and 5 pm you can come to 7 Hill st. in Somerville, to relax, meditate; chant (if you will) for 90 minutes.
Everyone is welcome to enjoy the peaceful and spiritual atmosphere.
“Boston Globe” and other local papers have featured this special place.
Harvard graduate Reverend Kim found the location at the border of Medford and Somerville and organized the new home for Won-Buddhists and everyone else who wants to come and leave behind a hectic life and world with problems to exercise the mind and body.
All are welcome to come and learn some breathing techniques, meditation, and Tai chi.
Free yourself from the daily stress of life for 90 minutes of silence and peace.
Schools around the country are now implementing meditation to help with discipline and concentration of students.
Rev.Kim visited some schools in our state and taught kids how to breathe for relaxation.
When I teach evening classes I also ask my students to close their eyes and sit in silence for five minutes before we will begin the class. It’s a wonderful form of relaxation and concentration.
I had an opportunity to visit the Won Dharma Center (wondharmacenter.org) in upstate New York for a 3 day retreat and had a delightful experience in a peaceful environment, tasty food and three days of meditation of different kinds: sitting, moving, walking in nature. I met people there from different states and even countries.
Some Thursdays nights in Somerville one can try a very special ginger lemon tea with pies from Reverend Park after the meditation, meet new people and have a friendly talk.
In 2009 I was interviewing Rev. Kim, founder and leader of the Won-Buddhist center of Boston on TV3 Medford, for my show “Meeting Interesting people”. After the show was aired in Medford it was also aired in Somerville.
Soon a new home for TV3 in Medford will be open and I’m planning to reestablish the program. I will invite Rev.Kim again to hear new stories of how meditation helps to transform people’s lives.
