Open Sky Meditation

Open Sky Meditation Open Sky Meditation provides a group setting for those interested in practicing meditation in a calm, inclusive, and friendly environment.

Currently on hiatus while changing meeting location. Open Sky Meditation was founded on February 28, 2004. The skinny is the group is on hiatus and not currently meeting. An announcement will come out here as soon as we are back on with a new space and schedule. Read on for more information. In normal times, Open Sky provides a group setting for those interested in practicing seated and walking meditation in a calm, inclusive, and friendly environment, asking only for free will donations to help cover costs. Sessions are usually about an hour and are usually held twice per week. However, these last years have been difficult for everyone. To keep everyone safe, the group took a break during the pandemic. In addition, you may have noticed the closing and recent demolition of the Commissary Mall in Casper! Yes, it is true, the wonderful and sacred space known as Sona's Absolute Fitness that we were graciously afforded to hold our meditation sessions is no more. Despite this, we are not gone! We are actively looking for a new location where we can practice again with all of you. Open Sky welcomes those interested in learning about meditation and is open to all, whether brand new or experienced. Rest assured, we will be starting back up as soon as we have a space. In the meantime, continue practicing using the many tools and teachers that are out there, Insight Timer is a free app offering extensive free and paid content on mobile devices, and Dharmaseed.org has many teachers offering many hundreds of Dharma talks and guided meditations in Buddhist Vipassana. Thank you, stay safe, and keep an eye out for an announcement when we can get back on the cushion and hold periodic mini retreats and invited speakers. We look forward to breathing with you all again very soon.

I loved seeing faces of meditators who haven't been to Open Sky in awhile: Garnetta Barker moved back after being gone for 3 years and Joann Price who's been gone for a while. It's great having you both return!

If you'll come and try it out this Friday, we provide instruction and there are plenty of sitting cushions. It's a good idea to arrive a few minutes before start in order to get jackets off and say hello to our friendly participants. Session starts at 5:30pm at Absolute Fitness on the Commissary Mall. No cost.

As some of you may know, Patricia Hayden suffered a stroke this month, and has limited use of her left arm and left leg. Her face and mind were not affected, and she's recovering well in Elkhorn Valley Rehabilitation Hospital.

Open Sky is offering group meditation with Patricia in her room 201, to help in her recovery on Fridays & Sundays at 4:00. 2-4 people work well since her room is small. Please contact Linda Ryan who is coordinating these sits, so we can make sure Patricia, as well as our group are covered for sitting meditation.

Linda's number is 307-377-6122.

Can anyone join Linda this Sunday, 9/25?
