21-Day Meditation Challenge

Gen Kelsang Chokyi, the Resident Teacher at KMC Bloomington, will guide you through 21-days of meditation. The 30-minutes consists of a short talk, some guidance with meditation, the guided meditation and the meditation break practice. This program has been carefully crafted to support you in forming a lasting, vibrant meditative life. It will lead you step-by-step in how to meditate, how to refine your skills as a meditator, and how to apply meditation to your life so you can be a truly modern meditation practitioner. Finally, you will get encouragement and support on how to transition from this month of meditation into life going forward, so you can enjoy the benefits of meditation far into the future. Each day, you will be provided with: > a 30 minute video that contains essential instruction on the meditation or aspect of meditation for the day, along with space to engage in a guided meditation > a passage from Buddhist texts relevant to the focus for the day to support contemplation and reflection throughout the day > a write-up about the topic illuminating additional aspects of that meditation and how to connect to it more deeply > an essential meditation tip or technique to keep your meditations more joyful and effective, and > a meditation break practice — integrating meditation into daily life The 21-Day challenge begins January 11. You can register anytime before January 11 to begin your challenge or register up to January 31.
