I am able to control only that which I am aware of. That which I am unaware of controls me. Awareness empowers me.

- John Whitmore

Mindful Self-Awareness, often simply called Mindfulness, is the intentional practice of purposefully paying attention, without self- defeating judgement, to our experiences in the present moment. We cultivate this capacity through the practice of meditation. 

With the proper intention and attention, we will train ourselves to realize a greater degree of steadiness of mind, heart and action in life.

Over the course of six weeks, Cynde Denson, Certified Mindfulness Teacher and Coach, will guide participants through a systematic approach to mindfulness in the Insight meditation tradition. Experienced and beginning meditators are welcome! 

Each weekly 60-minute class will include a short teaching, meditation practice, and time for discussion. A simultaneous Zoom link will be set up for those who are unable to join in person.

Entire 6-Week Series: $102.00, Single Class: $20.00 or Taspen's Card Price,  Click on the link below to book through Taspen's Class Schedule or Call Taspen's at 720-576-6129

Loving is an art. The skills of loving can be learned. They involve seeing and hearing another, expressing good will, recognizing another’s right to think and feel as he/she does, and the skill of being fully present in our relationships with others.

Shalom Retreats focus on empowerment. Through the practice of intentional loving, open space is created in community in which individuals can learn to express themselves with integrity, creativity and passion.
