Upcoming Meditation Classes and Retreats

Sunday Morning Drop-In Meditation in Vienna and Online

9:00-10:30am ET weekly

133 Maple Avenue East (Above the Bear Branch Tavern)
3rd Floor 
Vienna, Va. 
Offered 

Trisha is the founder and co-leader of a drop-in meditation group that has been meeting every Sunday mornings in downtown Vienna since 2007. The class consists of a lightly-guided meditation, a dharma talk, and time for group discussion. While there’s a core group of folks who have been around for a while, there are always newcomers each week and all levels of practice are warmly welcomed. This group also does quite a bit of socializing – from dinners and book clubs, to volunteering together and cultural outings. Offered by donation. For more info, including Trisha’s teaching dates and how to get the Zoom link, visit our IMCW Class Page.

  • "She has an undying commitment to support the awakening of beings through her clear and accessible teachings, terrific sense of humor, and deep love for the Dharma."

    Trisha has been a dear dharma colleague and friend for over fifteen years. She rocks! 

    — La Sarmiento, Teacher Emeritus, Insight Meditation Community of Washington

  • "Trisha’s diverse life experiences have given her a unique eye into the human condition and she’s able to translate that into practical teachings that feel relatable."

    Every time I attend, I think, “How did she know I needed to hear that today?” 

    — Susan M., Daylong retreat student

  • "Whether she’s speaking with a small community group or hundreds of people at a large event, Trisha brings the same level of warmth and authenticity that makes her teaching so relatable."

    — Lauren M., Fairfax County Caregiver Support Network

  • "I felt no need to pretend to be something I’m not. I wish there were more spaces like this."

    The group of about 30 was made up of regular people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds, and not only did nothing weird happen, it was probably the most refreshingly “average” group of people I’d been around in a long time! The meditation and talk were followed by a discussion where all views were welcomed, and I felt no need to pretend to be something I’m not. I wish there were more spaces like this. 

    — Stephan D., Sunday morning drop-in student

  • "Whether she’s speaking with a small community group or hundreds of people at a large event, Trisha brings the same level of warmth and authenticity that makes her teaching so relatable."

    — Lauren M., Fairfax County Caregiver Support Network

  • "Thank you for the many years of wisdom and heart. I remember your teaching anecdotes often and can hear your voice in my head whenever I hit a rough patch."

    The recordings of your meditations are also a frequent go-to when I feel my practice slipping and need a reboot!

    — Sam L., MBSR student

  • "I always leave my mentoring sessions with Trisha feeling more grounded and confident in my practice."

    Meditation is ultimately a solitary practice but I’ve found the opportunity to meet regularly with a wise mentor and a group of people dedicated to living life more “awake” has been absolutely essential to my growth.

    — Lyann, Mentee
