Teen Program

The Teen Program, facilitated by Tempel Smith, a Buddhist teacher with over thirteen years of personal meditation and retreat experience, offers teens the opportunity to learn and practice insight meditation, and to meet other like- minded youth.

Each class contains a period of guided insight meditation with a short dharma talk afterwards. The second part of the class is a discussion about the fun and challenges each person finds in his or her life, and how this practice can be helpful. The tone of the class is very open and relaxed. The class is ongoing and any teen is welcome to drop in on any class and to bring interested friends.
