Friday Morning Meditation

8:15-9:00a Central time via zoom

Each Friday, I choose a different theme, which applies to both meditation practice and everyday life. Class is a refuge space—you’re led by a caring teacher and held by community.

Does this sound familiar?

  • You’re curious about meditation but aren’t sure where to start.

  • You’ve tried meditation but can’t keep a practice going.

  • You’re looking for a group of well-intentioned folks who live differently in this complex world.

  • You’re interested in learning new meditation and mindfulness techniques.

  • You long for a place where you can show up and be accepted just as you are.

then my friday meditation class is for you!

Friday meditation is a big part of my life. Our circle has energy and love among us, and Joy’s invitation to “come as you are” is so honest. The non-judgmental atmosphere brings peace to us all. The Zoom room is magical—a safe place to meditate and join in community. Joy is a master!
— Peg M.

Here’s how class works

  • Each Friday 8a, I send an email that includes a class intro, which I expand on during the live session.

  • The Zoom room opens around 8:10a (link included in the email) and class begins around 8:15a.

  • You choose each time: join live, just read the email, or listen to the archives at a different time.

  • You can arrive late or leave early. You can have your camera on or off. Show up just as you are!

  • There’s no charge for the class. Give it a try! (If you find my teaching helpful, you can create a subscription or make a donation.)

I’ve been in the meditation group for nearly ten years. Joy is a humble, dedicated leader with wisdom to share. The guided meditations, which often include movement, are simple and accessible, with themes ranging from loving ourselves to letting go. I love the group! We’re totally accepted as we are. We laugh over our failings, share our insights and experiences, and turn them into something greater than ourselves.

Hi, my name is Joy. I help people who struggle with anxiety, exhaustion, and busyness to slow down and savor life.

Mindfulness and meditation seem daunting but I teach practices that are easy to work into your day. These are low-commitment but high-impact tools that are quick to master.

With my guidance, mindfulness goes from something you wish you did regularly to a well-formed habit integrated into your life. 

thanks for being you!
