Plan Your Visit
directions, public transit, and parking
We are located walking distance from downtown Halifax, near several main bus routes, including the 1, 4, 7a, 7b, 10, & 29.
Parking directly in front of the Centre is currently only legal after 6pm and on weekends, as dictated by the City. We are working to relax these restrictions. On-street parking can be found in the surrounding area.
What to bring and what not to bring
Meditation is easiest when you're wearing clothes that you feel comfortable moving in and sitting in - be that in a chair or on a meditation cushion.
We strive to be a scent-free environment. In order to care for community members with serious allergies, please do not use products with ingredients like "fragrance," "parfum," or other indications of scents.
Please bring your travel mug and/or your water bottle. Help our community avoid single-use plastic bottles, please.
