Our History
|
There has been a growing need in the area for more mindfulness events. In the past few years, since approximately 2006, more and more people in the Mesa and Phoenix area have been attending Meditation related events. New teachers and groups are starting all the time. In talking with many of these people over the years there seemed to be a growing demand to create a place where information about these new groups could be collected and passed on. Also, many are looking for more retreats and opportunities to practice together. The intention of Mesa Mindfulness is to try to fulfill this expanding need that individuals seem to have for furthering their personal search for an alternative, happier way to live. Although this site hosts events that utilize Buddhist practices it is not intended to be limited to Buddhism. Discussions involving any religion, book or other mindfulness related practices or wisdom teachings are encouraged.
