For years Elliott Dacher MD has hosted meditation classes at the Martha’s Vineyard Hospital. The success of that program has led to an ever-growing group of alumni meditators who don’t always have a chance to continue their practice with others. Mr. Dacher will now be hosting a monthly class throughout the spring at the West Tisbury Congregational Church beginning Saturday, March 19 from 9 a.m. to noon. The class will be for beginners and experienced meditators.

The sessions will feature guided meditation and group practice, as well as discussions on the contemplative life and overall wellbeing. Specific themes and occasional guest speakers will highlight the gatherings.

Upcoming dates are April 16, May 21, and June 11. Programs are free, with donations welcome.
