Family Sangha

This family-friendly program invites children to build a personal connection with Bon teachings while giving families a meaningful way to deepen their bond with both the tradition and one another. Each Family Sangha gathering offers a welcoming mix of shared snack time, meditation, a story or lesson, and a hands-on craft or activity designed to bring the teaching to life. Families are welcome to contribute to the snack table, adding to the spirit of community and participation.

The sessions are led by mothers and educators from the community in collaboration with Tempa Dukte Lama. Friday evening gatherings will be facilitated by educator and mother of two Bonnie Weiss, who previously guided the youth program. Bonnie is the owner of The School of Mindful Arts for children ages 3–18 and brings training in Waldorf and Montessori education, along with multiple mindfulness certificates, including the Mindful Schools curriculum. Tempa Lama will join selected sessions and advise on the program content.
