The vulnerability of living is a potential portal inviting us to respond to the turbulence of our times with compassion and clarity. In this program, we will call on the four establishments of mindfulness as a refuge and guide, helping us to metabolize the collective violence and ecological wounding that moves through our hearts, bodies, and beloved planet. Through guided meditations, periods of sitting and walking meditation, movement, communion with the more-than-human world, relational practices, and chanting, we will widen our capacity to heartfully respond to the beauty and difficulties, consciously calling forth the deep biological imperative for freedom. We extend a warm welcome to all, especially those who have experienced a disproportionate amount of pain such as Queer, BIPOC, and young people facing the enormity of the challenges ahead.
Program Format: We’re envisioning a program grounded in sitting, walking, guided meditations, and dharma talks. In addition, we’ll be offering chanting, movement, inquiry, and council practice.
