Valley Insight Meditation Society is a spiritual refuge for all who seek freedom of mind and heart. We provide opportunities and support for exploring the teachings of Buddhism and practice of vipassana, also known as insight meditation.
We offer weekly sitting groups suitable for beginners and experienced meditators; non-residential retreats; and instruction in meditation and mindfulness practice. Our teachers and formal practice are closely aligned with that of Insight Meditation Society (IMS), Barre Center for Buddhist Studies (BCBS), and Spirit Rock Meditation Center.
