Life cannot give you any more
than you are willing to put into it.

Feel the experience of being at ease within your body, at peace within your mind, and openness within your heart for the fully living of your life… truly a different kind of happy.

Aggasami Hour
In honor of her meditation teacher, Venerable Aggasami, Phi offers Aggasami Hour. It is our second studio and offers a more intimate setting for your practice. When Aggasami Hour is not in use and we are open, it serves as the meditation room where you can come to experience some quiet from the noise of your day, your life. You can drop in for five minutes, ten minutes, an hour, whatever you have time for or whatever you need. You can sit, lie, or lean (against the wall, that is
) and follow the rhythm of your breath to ease you back into the greater rhythm of your life. Or you can bring a headset, and listen to a guided meditation or a guided relaxation.
There is no fee for the use of Aggasami Hour. We ask for a donation, whatever you can offer, or offer whatever the experience means to you. We ask that you be courteous as you come and go, supporting others who may be sharing the space. May the comfort and ease of Aggasami Hour support you towards your own release and freedom.
Beginning Anew Sanctuary
Beginning anew was a practice taught by the Buddha to his sangha (community), offering sangha members a chance to share difficulties that arise within the context of living in a community. This was usually done once a month, or as needed when situations arose. Beginning anew was done in the presence of all the members of the sangha.
Thich Nhat Hanh, a Vietnamese Zen Monk, teaches Beginning Anew practices at his retreats to cultivate peace and healing within the individual, within the home, within the community. And within Agame YMC, Beginning Anew is a special sanctuary in which Phi works with private clients for their own beginning anew moments, their own beginning anew of life.
There is much that has happened in our past that leave imprints in our bodies, hearts, and minds, showing up in ways unsupportive of how we truly want to live our lives in the present moment. With compassionate, insightful experience and diverse skills, Phi guides individuals and couples to release unwholesome imprints for the blossoming of happiness and beauty.
