You are invited to practice quiet meditation with the Library and Indy Community Yoga. This practice is suitable for beginners, Zen Masters, and everyone in between. No special knowledge, experience, attire, belief, or non-belief is required. Just be yourself.

Our meditation is a simple practice of finding ease in your body and ease in your breathing in a supportive, relaxed setting with other humans. There is nothing to achieve and nothing to attain, but you may find some clarity and, with regular practice, find it easier to face all that life brings with courage and grace.

We’ll have chairs set up. The practice leader will offer guidance for beginners, but the bulk of the practice will be quiet sitting for up to 25 minutes. After meditation, participants may share reflections with the group and ask questions. 

The sessions will be led by the practice leaders of Indy Community Yoga, a local nonprofit that works to support our collective well-being by offering daily meditation and yoga practices, seasonal silent retreats, and community care projects that are always 100% free to participants. 

Made possible by Friends of the Library through gifts to The Indianapolis Public Library Foundation.

About the branch

Opened in 2021, this branch encompasses 24,000-square-feet and fills a service gap in the growing Perry Township community. Patrons will find a varied collection of materials at the branch, including materials in Spanish and children’s Burmese language materials to support the diverse community of immigrants who live on Indy’s south side.

Amenities include a community meeting room that can hold 203 guests, a fireplace, a marketplace, computer stations, a children's and teen zone, and an inviting outdoor patio space.
