On ZoomTopic:
Story Exchange with Shoshana Perry and Summer PayneOffered by: Shoshana Perry and Summer Payne
Eco-chaplains Shoshana Perry and Summer Payne will guide us in connecting with others using
Narrative 4’s Story Exchange methodology.
To prepare: Bring a story from your life you are willing to share. Below are prompts focused on earth and community from which to choose. The story should be no longer than 5 minutes. The story you bring to the workshop will be shared by a fellow Earth Care participant, who will then share it with the larger community.
PROMPTS
The Ground Beneath MeShare a story about a specific place on earth that influenced you—a backyard, a farm, a city block, a shoreline, or a mountain trail. What happened there that changed how you see yourself and others?
A Lesson From the Natural WorldShare a moment when something in nature—like the weather, an animal, a plant, or a season—taught you about community, resilience, or belonging.
Planting Something That Wasn't a SeedShare a story about when you planted an idea, a relationship, or an act of care that grew into something bigger than you expected.
Weathering It TogetherShare a time when you and others faced a storm—literal or metaphorical—and endured it.
For more information about the event and the facilitators on the event post on the IMC website.If you have any questions, please contact the Earth Care group at

In-person at IMC only
Offered by:
Kim AllenIn a world of AI, virtual interaction, and constant information flow, it is easy to lose touch with what is reliable and what is spiritually nourishing. Meditation can help us attune to a natural intelligence that resides within and includes both wisdom and heart qualities. This day of practice will support cultivating this Dharma intelligence. Learning to trust it supports our engagement with both the inner and outer worlds.
This daylong retreat will include alternating periods of sitting and walking, guided meditations, dharma talks, and contemplation. It will be an opportunity to strengthen mindfulness, develop wisdom, practice with the IMC community, and ask a teacher questions. Appropriate for meditators who are already familiar with basic mindfulness instructions. Bring lunch.
The program is offered freely, with no registration needed. If you'd like to donate to the teacher or the center, you can visit IMC's donation page
here No registration is necessary. Kim Allen is a teacher and author who brings classical Dharma to a modern context. She has trained through long retreat practice, study of the Pāli Canon, and formal teacher training with Gil Fronsdal of the Insight Meditation Center. She is ordained as a Lay Contemplative and encourages lay practitioners in fully living a life of Dharma. Kim also serves on the faculty and board of the Sati Center. Her education includes a PhD in physics and a master’s degree in environmental sustainability, and she is the guiding teacher of Uncontrived (
http://www.uncontrived.org).

Registration required, the registration and Mentor application form will appear here, scroll down in early July 2025
The Buddha’s most explicit path of practice is the Eightfold Path— a set of eight practical approaches to bring Buddhist practice into the width and depth of our lives. The Eightfold Path Program is an introduction to each of the Eightfold factors so participants will discover how to apply each set of practices in ways that are personally meaningful.
Pre-requisite: completion of IMC’s Introduction to Meditation course or the equivalent.
After registering, you will receive Zoom links and course materials by email. A longer application is required to be assigned a mentor in addition to the group meetings. Mentoring slots may fill early.
2025-26 Team teaching includes Chris Clifford, Liz Powell and others.
The program has the following elements:
- 2-1/2 hour monthly meetings that include teachings, meditation, and discussions.
- Readings, reflections, and practices for each month.
- A monthly one-hour personal meeting with an Eightfold Path mentor (if you apply for this) to discuss one’s practice and reflections on the Eightfold Path factors.
- Four optional drop-in Discussion/Q&A sessions for anyone, but especially for those with no personal mentor.
- Ends with a one-day Eightfold Path retreat on Zoom and perhaps in-person.
Contact eightfoldpath@insightmeditationcenter.org with questions.

Five Wednesdays: April 15 – May 13, 2026: 7:00 – 8:30 pm
In-person at IMC
Offered by:
Lydia Ridgway and
Lauren SilverMindfulness meditation, also known as insight meditation or vipassana, is a simple technique that concentrates and calms the mind. At the heart of mindfulness meditation is the practice of moment-to-moment observation which cultivates a clear, stable and non-judgmental awareness. While mindfulness practice can be highly effective in helping bring calm and clarity to the pressures of daily life, it is also a spiritual path that gradually dissolves the barriers to the full development of our wisdom and compassion.
During this introductory course, the basic instructions in mindfulness meditation will be given sequentially, starting with a focus on mindfulness of breathing, followed by mindfulness of the body, emotions, thinking, and the application of mindfulness in daily life.
The program is offered freely, with no registration needed. If you’d like to donate to the teacher or the center, you can visit IMC’s donation page
here.
