It was so wonderful to enjoy such a nice meditation. I really enjoy their social media posts of events. That's how I knew. It really is such a beautiful space. And even the main room had beautiful sculptures. I enjoyed a nice cup of coffee and they had veggie food offerings & lots of snacks for this special Meditation event. Yum. I'm happy there so many kind staff members around to answer my questions & even have a lil' tour. They had little booklets to look at to guide you along as the teacher spoke. It was very peaceful, and I felt the weight of the world lifted from my shoulders. Gen Chogyop has a special kind of gentle caring way about her. I really enjoyed this time to meditate. Even though I'm not an expert meditator... I feel wholeheartedly that it went well. I'll definitely come again. I enjoyed the chance to meet the regulars here.

Dharmachakra is a Buddhist meditation center in the New Kadampa Tradition. You do not need to be…read moreBuddhist to benefit from the teachings and practices. Weekly meditation classes are offered in Millburn, Shrewsbury, Little Silver, Ridgewood, Madison and more. Everyone is welcome! Check out www.meditatenj.org for more information. I originally found this center through a basic Google search, and then learned more about it via the official Facebook page (link: https://www.facebook.com/pg/MeditateNJ/about/?ref=page_internal) This specific location is conveniently located in the Millburn Mall off Vauxhall Road in Union, NJ. It is a small space which has a tiny lobby to take off your shoes, check in and pay any class fees (if applicable). It opens into a larger meditation area with a beautiful Buddhist shrine, chairs and cushions to meditate, books on Kadampa Buddhism (for sale), and a small back area with drinks/snacks and a place for the teacher to organize their things before a meeting/meditation. The interior is minimalist, comfortable, and welcoming. This is a wonderful, safe space to learn about Buddhism and practice meditation with others. I was always interested in Buddhism, but had never meditated before. Since moving nearby a few months ago, I have found a true community within this Center. For $15, you are able to partake in a 90min. meditation class which teaches you about Buddhist tradition and helps walk you through self-guided meditations. At this center, this class is usually held every Thursday from 7pm-830pm. Beginners are welcome, as are continuing members. You can become a member of the temple (for around $700/year) but this is not required to join in on many of the classes and festivities. All participants are also welcome to visit/meditate at the nearby NYC Kadampa Meditation Center, as well as the Kadampa Center upstate in tranquil Glen Spey, NY which hosts a series of wonderful retreats throughout the year. I haven't been yet but am very much looking forward to going. What I love most about Buddhism is that it cultivates knowledge and growth to more deeply understand your mind. I highly encourage anybody remotely interested in Buddhism to visit here.

Stumbled in here during one of the coldest days of the year, primarily just to warm up. Had no…read moreexpectations because, like I said, it was cold, they were the closest place to take shelter and I saw a coffee bar. Anyway, since then I've been back 3 more times; once for breakfast and twice for brunch. And while I'm confessing, the two times for lunch were on subsequent days. Yeah, they're that good. Actually, their chicken salad on a croissant is the best I've ever had and in my advanced years I've had a crapload of chicken salad. The have a nice sized coffee bar, decorated beautifully with some pretty delicious looking pastries. I'm on an anti-sweet phase so I'm basing my opinion on only on appearance. Then there's a seating area when you can eat, served by a friendly attentive staff and an adjacent boutique area where you can purchase housewares, clothing and other cool stuff. I'm not in Maplewood all that often, generally when I'm shopping at the equally awesome City Workshop but when I do, I always make sure to hit up Perch. You should too. 1/2 star deduction because they don't offer fake sugar, just that Stevia crap which is gross.

Whenever I'm in Maplewood, I always stop into Perch Home. It's a quaint Cafe surrounded by…read morebeautiful merchandise (jewelry, apparel, home decor), historical furniture, and very good coffee. The wall frames and Christmas decorations are gorgeous and there are tables, with comfortable seating, on one end of the Cafe. I ordered the following: Matcha White Hot Chocolate (a traditional matcha latte blended with white chocolate sauce), Snickerdoodle Latte (A traditional latte, blended with brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla syrup). Both of these were served at the perfect temperature, were richly creamy, and served in large mugs. I also ordered a Carrot Cake Muffin and it was very good. It was moist, each forkful had a decent amount of walnuts, and the frosting was exquisite. Once you're finished with your food, don't forget to stroll through the entire cafe. You'll probably find something that will pique your interest. Either way, try to make time to enjoy it all.
