Middleburgh Library Notes for Thursday, May 14, 2020

Our popular Insight Meditation group is meeting virtually!

What do you want most deeply? Seeing your life calmly and clearly helps answer this.

Insight Meditation is a simple way to steady your mind, stop wandering in daydreams, and end the suffering of troubling thoughts. Our group is a place to sit quietly in safety, supported by others; to allow understanding and compassion to arise; to encourage loving-kindness and patience.

We welcome those with no experience to advanced mediators, teens to seniors. We will be using the Zoom platform for our meetings for the time being. Registration is required to receive the join link. You can use a computer/laptop, tablet or phone to access the meeting.

Story time

Stay at Home Story Time with Miss Terry is great for toddlers and preschoolers and their caregivers! Join us on Facebook, Tuesdays at 10:45 a.m.until May 26.

Lego Club

Each week you will be given a challenge to complete. Some of these challenges may be crazy; watch out! Post a picture or two and a description of your creation. Go to the Middleburgh Library Facebook page and join the group. Each challenge will be posted on Monday mornings. Good luck!
