George Draffan is returning to Columbus during the last week of January to lead a series of events, including a weekend retreat, a one-day workshop, and an evening program. Please click here to read about these exciting events!

The "Wake up to your Life” (or WUTYL, pronounced woo til) group of Columbus, Ohio is a small, nonsectarian Buddhist group that meets twice weekly to meditate and to study the Buddhist teachings of Ken McLeod, Stephen Batchelor, and other western teachers.

We learn to apply practical Buddhist tools to our daily lives in order to become increasingly open to the mystery of the present moment. Though we view regular meditation practice as one key element to becoming more fully awake and alive, we seek to develop a type of practice that we can recall throughout the day, whether on or off the cushion. We don't just try to fit a meditation practice into our lives. We bring our lives into our practice.
