Young Zen is a biweekly meeting for 17-35 years old practitioners to sit together, connect, and share concerns that may be particular to people of younger life stages who have a meditation practice.

Our meetings generally include a 25 minute period of zazen, a circle for sharing and getting to know each other, and an activity involving mindfulness, meditation, or interpersonal relating. Please check the Appamada Main Calendar for meeting times.

Young Zen was started to support younger members of the Appamada Sangha. If you have never been to Appamada before or have not meditated before, we encourage attending the Sunday morning orientation first. That said, do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions!
