Beginner’s Mind: Learn the Basics of Meditation
March 02, 2021

Penn’s Village hosted a participatory workshop with Olivia Walling, a trained and long-time Zen practitioner to learn meditation techniques.

We learned techniques used in Zen to meditate, including concentration practice and loving kindness meditation. The workshop was not a life hack but an opportunity to use techniques to discover the sweet, solid ease under the storm of thoughts.

Olivia Walling is a Penn’s Village member and a former monastic and long-time Zen practitioner. She has a deep and long experience with the techniques that will be presented.
