Eightfold Path Program In-Person and Zoom for 2026-27 now open for registration

Taught by  Lydia Ridgway, Yanli Wang, Thina Ollier, Janel Crooks and others

One Sunday a month 1:00 to 3:30 pm (2 in October) ending in June.

The Buddha’s most explicit path of practice is the Eightfold Path—a set of eight practical approaches to bring Buddhist practice into the width and depth of our lives. The Eightfold Path Program is an introduction to each of the Eightfold factors so participants will discover how to apply each set of practices in ways that are personally meaningful.

Pre-requisite: completion of IMC’s Introduction to Meditation course or the equivalent.

There is an option to apply for individual or possibly small group mentoring, meaning additional monthly hour-long meetings with a senior practitioner to discuss your work with each factor.   The application below covers both mentored and non-mentored options.

After registering, you will receive Zoom links and course materials by email.

Registration required:  application form
