Teen Program

The Teen Program, facilitated by Tempel Smith, a Buddhist teacher with over thirteen years of personal meditation and retreat experience, offers teens the opportunity to learn and practice insight meditation, and to meet other like- minded youth. The teen group currently meets twice a month (see the schedule).

Each class contains a period of guided insight meditation with a short dharma talk afterwards. The second part of the class is a discussion about the fun and challenges each person finds in their life, and how this practice can be helpful. The tone of the class is very open and relaxed. The class is ongoing and any teen is welcome to drop in on any class and to bring interested friends.

Teens or parents are welcome to contact Tempel directly for information or to discuss the program. Tempel can be reached by email: Tempel Smith or by phone 415-643-8338.

Buddhist Peacefellowship is sponsoring teen retreats, for information, see Upcoming Teen Retreats or download a Retreat Flier.
