Note: Event begins at 10:00am PT / 1:00pm ET
The path of awakening taught by the Buddha includes a wide range of practices to calm the body and mind, to heal the heart, and to respond to need with wisdom and compassion. Silent meditation is only one form of training. In our time together, we will use the foundation of inner practice to build a holistic approach to transformation and engaged action.
How do we find the strength to handle difficult emotions and the courage to face intensely challenging situations? In the first part of this series, we will explore ways to calm the mind and body, manage fear and anxiety effectively, and offer loving support to others in distress. This half-day online workshop will include a range of tools, from silent meditation and visualization to movement and interactive practice.
This event is appropriate for meditators at all levels of experience. All are welcome; no prior experience necessary.
This program will be held online via Zoom from 1:00-4:30pm ET / 10a-1:30pm PT. A link with simple instructions will be sent to all registrants before the program. We will take several short breaks, including a 20-30 min break in the middle.
