SUMMARY:Sacred Silence Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Sacred Silence Meditation is a drop-in gathering that offers a gentle\, intentional pause at the end of your week. \nJoin Dr. Holly Hopkins Shah on Thursdays to go into the silence. The 30-minute meditation begins at 7:30 pm  (following 15 minutes of connection time at 7:15) and will include 20 minutes of silence.  Open to anyone who wants to set down the noise of the week and rest in stillness for a while. Perfect for anyone who feels the pull toward the quiet or is curious about silent meditation vs. guided. \nWhat to expect\n– The evening begins with a few minutes of connection to help you release the busyness you carried in.\n– From there\, a brief reading rooted in universal spiritual principles settles the room before the group enters into shared silence together.\n– This is not a guided meditation with prompts or instructions. The silence is open and spacious\, giving you room to simply be present and allow your own awareness to deepen.\n– The gathering closes with an affirmative prayer that brings a sense of grounded peace to carry with you into the rest of your evening. \nIf you have been feeling scattered\, overstimulated\, or disconnected from yourself\, this is a space designed with you in mind! \nWeekly on Thursdays\nTime: 7:30 PM to 8:00 PM – feel free to arrive a little early for some connection time\, meditation begins promptly at 7:30pm\nWith: Dr. Holly Hopkins Shah\nLocation: Unity Palo Alto (in person and online via Zoom)\nAddress: 3391 Middlefield Rd\, Palo Alto\, CA 94306\nPhone: 650.849.1100\nEmail: connecting@unitypaloalto.org\nZoom Meeting Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85399362903?pwd=b2hlWjhK3xaIuHeahRjWYrsUYhBius.1 \nThis event is open to everyone. No registration required. A suggested donation of $5-10 is warmly appreciated. Simply show up\, in person or online\, and bring yourself exactly as you are.

SUMMARY:Sacred Silence Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Sacred Silence Meditation is a drop-in gathering that offers a gentle\, intentional pause at the end of your week. \nJoin Dr. Holly Hopkins Shah on Thursdays to go into the silence. The 30-minute meditation begins at 7:30 pm  (following 15 minutes of connection time at 7:15) and will include 20 minutes of silence.  Open to anyone who wants to set down the noise of the week and rest in stillness for a while. Perfect for anyone who feels the pull toward the quiet or is curious about silent meditation vs. guided. \nWhat to expect\n– The evening begins with a few minutes of connection to help you release the busyness you carried in.\n– From there\, a brief reading rooted in universal spiritual principles settles the room before the group enters into shared silence together.\n– This is not a guided meditation with prompts or instructions. The silence is open and spacious\, giving you room to simply be present and allow your own awareness to deepen.\n– The gathering closes with an affirmative prayer that brings a sense of grounded peace to carry with you into the rest of your evening. \nIf you have been feeling scattered\, overstimulated\, or disconnected from yourself\, this is a space designed with you in mind! \nWeekly on Thursdays\nTime: 7:30 PM to 8:00 PM – feel free to arrive a little early for some connection time\, meditation begins promptly at 7:30pm\nWith: Dr. Holly Hopkins Shah\nLocation: Unity Palo Alto (in person and online via Zoom)\nAddress: 3391 Middlefield Rd\, Palo Alto\, CA 94306\nPhone: 650.849.1100\nEmail: connecting@unitypaloalto.org\nZoom Meeting Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85399362903?pwd=b2hlWjhK3xaIuHeahRjWYrsUYhBius.1 \nThis event is open to everyone.
