Welcome to Rooted In Mindfulness (RIM), a community for all who wish to practice meditation and mindful living; to awaken the best within themselves, and co-create a safe and healthy world.

What We Do At RIM

Learning, Practicing, and Awakening Together.

At Rooted In Mindfulness, we are growing our wisdom and compassion to cultivate a more peaceful, healthy, and happy life.

Through traditional teachings, meditation practice, mindful living, and community support, we can awaken to each moment of our lives more deeply, better understanding ourselves and the world around us.

This wakefulness allows us to live with skillfulness and purpose, where our actions generate well-being within ourselves, others, and our shared world.

Tradition and Approach

Traditional Wisdom for Everyday Life.

Rooted In Mindfulness is committed to sharing the essence of Buddhist wisdom in ways that are nonsectarian, universal, relevant, informed by modern science, free of dogma, and appropriate for everyone regardless of background.

Live Community Events

Community provides connection, support, and friendship that can be profoundly nourishing in a world where we can sometimes feel disconnected and unsupported.

Enjoy the company of others who share the intentions to awaken our innate human goodness through meditation and mindful living. Together, we learn and practice ways to reduce harm, nourish well-being within one another and our shared world.

When you join RIM, you can participate in live events; meditation sessions, dharma talks, classes, community groups, retreats, and more.

Practicing Mutual Support and Goodwill

Generosity-Based Dana Model

RIM is inspired by the spirit of Dana, an ancient Pali language word that means generosity of heart, mind, and action. Dana promotes a healthier, selfless, caring, and grateful world.

Traditionally, Buddhist nuns and monks offer teachings in the spirit of generosity, while the community supports the teachers and the center to the level of their ability. In this same spirit, RIM and its teachers do not charge any fees or tuition and are supported by the community.

As an alternative to a pay-for-service economics model, RIM embraces a generosity-based model. The RIM community is a living gift made possible by the appreciation, goodwill, and generosity of the kind people inspired to give financial support, volunteer, teach, and support one another.

RIM is a 501(c3) non-profit organization.
