Secular Mindfulness Meditation for Veterans Group Begins in Denver

June 15, 2018

Please join us every other Wednesday at the Shambhala Meditation Center in Denver for Secular Mindfulness Meditation for Veterans

Veterans Peace of Mind is now offering Mindfulness Meditation sessions for Veterans and Active Duty Service Members at the Shambhala Meditation Center in Denver, located at 2305 S Syracuse Wy, Ste. 214, Denver, CO 80231.

We meet every other Wednesday from 12:00 Noon to 2:00 pm. See this calendar for current meeting information.

We will practice meditation, participate in discussions, and offer friendly support. 

Our own mind is our own worst enemy. We try to focus, and our mind wanders off. We try to keep stress at bay, but anxiety keeps us awake at night. Training our mind through peaceful abiding mindfulness, we can create an alliance that allows us to actually use our mind, rather than be used by it.

— Sakyong Mipham, Turning the Mind Into an Ally

Many scientific studies at this point have verified the value of mindfulness for stress-reduction, emotional well-being, improved health, and other benefits. Veterans’ Peace of Mind uses a variety of mindfulness-based techniques to “dis-empower” the triggers of trauma, exercising choice as to whether or not they allow the triggers to escalate and run away with them. Learning to let go of afflictive emotions and obsessive thinking in this way relaxes stress and invites a healthier, more joyful experience of life. When the mind isn’t cluttered with a lot of thoughts, its true nature is cheerful.
