11:00 am ~ Learning to Sit: My Experience with Zazen in Japan
Our speaker, Kimberly Mathis, is a Masters-level Marriage & Family Therapist in Chattanooga and member of UUCC. She has a BS in Psychology from UTC, and an MA in Counseling from East Tennessee State University.
Before moving back to Chattanooga, Kimberly and her two daughters lived in Japan from 2012-2014, and fell in love with Buddhism, temple life, and zazen (sitting meditation). She became close friends with priests and monks, participated in monthly Zazen sessions at temples, and founded monthly classes on Buddhism at temples for foreigners and military families. She will speak about her experiences in Japan, and how developing a zazen practice deepened her spiritual experience.
