GUIDELINES FOR All DAY SITTING
• We try hard to start on time – please arrive a few minutes before the starting time of 9:00am.
• If you want to participate part time, please contact Jeff George, at drjeffgeorge@gmail.com, and we will set a schedule that will least impact the group.
• You are invited to sleep at the Center on Friday night (especially if you live a distance from the Center) – let Jeff know if you are interested.
• You are also invited to stay overnight at the Center on Saturday if you want to join the group for our regular Sunday sitting – let Jeff know.
• BRING YOUR OWN LUNCH – we will provide liquids (teas and juice).
• We recommend a donation to the Center of $15 for members and $20 for non-members. More, or less, is fine. Never let financial issues stop you from practicing with us.
• Because there is a work period with assigned tasks, it is very helpful if you let Jeff George, at drjeffgeorge@gmail.com, know you are planning to attend.
Hope to see you soon!
