Join us for a little boost of mindfulness and connection to start your week!
Join WITHIN Meditation for Sunday Meditation @ TINT Gallery – an in-person soul-nourishing event that includes guided meditation, lively discussion, and time to connect. Dip your toes into mindfulness for the first time or deepen your practice with us.
Designed for beginner and intermediate students, this hour-long class includes a relaxing 30-minute guided meditation, followed by inspiring conversation with other participants, and time for Q&A. As the teacher leads you in meditation, they'll offer guidance on specific techniques and concepts to build your meditation practice. Then, they'll invite you to reflect on that week's theme, connecting one-on-one with other participants as well as with the larger group. You'll plant seeds of inspiration for bringing more mindfulness into your life - and you just might walk away with a new friend or two to boot!
This class is happening on select Sundays at 12pm in person at the beautiful TINT Gallery. It's hosted by WITHIN Meditation teacher Shundo David Haye, who will be leading a session on this date:
September 25th

What to Wear and What to Bring
We'll have meditation cushions and chairs to sit on - but feel free to bring a yoga mat or a blanket if you'd like extra support. Wear clothes you feel comfortable sitting in (leave the tight jeans at home!).
Shundo David Haye is an ordained Zen priest. He came from England in 2000 to live at the San Francisco Zen Center, and spent fifteen years in residential training, including five years of monastic practice at Tassajara. He helped found and run the successful Young Urban Zen practice group at the Zen Center. Although he loves the robes and the formal rituals, he is interested in reaching people who will never set foot inside a Zen temple. He has taught at tech companies, schools and colleges, yoga studios, retreat centers, and the county jail. He loves being outside, especially on a bike, and leads regular mindful hikes around San Francisco, as well as a weekly outdoor meditation.
About TINT Gallery
TINT showcases contemporary artists who innovate across media, spotlighting women artists in particular. We carefully curate selections of works to showcase the artists' technical skills as well as their ability to communicate something immediate to the viewer.
We’re a new kind of gallery: there’s no intimidation, prices are always listed, and the process of acquiring art is made transparent and accessible. We’ve even created a seating area so you can linger and take in the art. Our goal is to connect to the local community, to provide a space for meaningful conversations, and to bring a feeling of warmth and welcome to an art gallery.
We love supporting art in all its forms and are excited to share the best of our local finds with you. To find more information on Tint, visit thetintgallery.com.
