SUMMARY:HYBRID: Celebrate the Changing Seasons w/ Mindful Movement: Winter Solstice
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the Changing Seasons with Mindful Movement: Winter Solstice \nSunday\, December 21st 2025 \n9:00 – 10:30AM PT (Time Zone Converter) \nHYBRID \nwith Jonathan Relucio and Jenn Biehn \nClosed Captioning Provided on Zoom \nThe center is fragrance-free and wheelchair accessible \nN95/KN95 masks required \n\n\n  \nWe invite you to join us in community movement meditation as we welcome the season of Winter. \nWe will practice easy-to-learn tai chi\, qigong\, and yoga movements. These accessible\, non-strenuous movements invite softness and continuity as they release tension\, negativity and stress and bring healing to body-heart-mind-spirit. \nTogether we will practice movements that embody and strengthen the heart qualities including lovingkindness\, compassion\, joy and equanimity as we co-create together a peaceful world for all beings. As we embody these heart qualities through mindful movement\, we experience a profound synergy and ever-deepening interconnectedness – so important in these challenging times. \nMovements can be practiced both seated and standing. We will end our practice with silent\, stillness meditation. No prior experience necessary. \nJoin us as we welcome the season of Winter. \n  \n\n\nOPTIONAL SOCIALIZING AT THE CENTER: After the class\, you’re invited to stay for snacks and fellowship in the EBMC kitchen\, from 10:30-11:15AM! \n\n\n\n\n  \nCost \nThe teachings are regarded as priceless. So they are offered without a fee. You are invited to support the teachings and our efforts by contributing voluntary donations (the practice of “Dana”) for the expenses of the meditation center and the support of the teachers. \nThe ticket prices are listed as different tiers with suggested donations based on income ranges. For those who wish to give more\, you may choose an “add-on” to your ticket. For those unable to give\, there is an option for that. \nNote that all financial gifts received here go directly to EBMC\, and we invite you to give separately to our teachers\, using the information below. \n  \nOther ways to give: \nTo make a gift to sustain the work of East Bay Meditation Center\, you may do so at bit.ly/ebmc-give 100% of our programming on a sliding scale and no one will ever be turned away for lack of funds. \n  \nPlease also consider giving a financial gift to our teachers as well\, who do not receive a salary for their work\, and give their teachings freely to all. \nTo make a gift to support the teachings\, please do so via \nPaypal: discaya@gmail.com \nVenmo: @JonathanRelucio \nPlease indicate “Winter Solstice” in the subject line. \n  \nThank you for the gifts of your generosity and for supporting the work of East Bay Meditation Center and our beloved teachers who have volunteered their time. \n  \nFor in-person participation: \nFor those wishing to practice in person\, space will be limited to 60 people to allow ample space for social distancing. Participants will be asked to wear N95 or KN95 face masks. (N95 face masks will be available at EBMC.)

SUMMARY:HYBRID: The Fire Inside with Rima Vesely-Flad & Thenmozhi Soundararajan (Book Event)
DESCRIPTION:The Fire Inside: The Dharma of James Baldwin and Audre Lorde \nConversation with author Rima Vesely-Flad and Thenmozhi Soundararajan \nMonday\, June 1st 2025 \n5:30-7:00pm PT \nIn-person at EBMC: 2406 Webster St.\, Oakland CA \nOnline via Zoom \n  \nEBMC is thrilled to host Dr. Rima Vesely-Flad\, author of the newly released book The Fire Inside: The Dharma of James Baldwin and Audre Lorde! Dr. Vesely-Flad will be in conversation with Thenmozhi Soundararajan\, author of The Trauma of Caste and Executive Director of Equality Labs. There will also be time for audience Q & A. We hope you’ll join us for this deeply intersectional discussion about two iconic Black queer writers\, timeless Buddhist teachings\, and our current work toward social justice and collective liberation. This event is for lovers of literature\, Buddhist teachings\, and social justice activism. All are welcome to attend. \nFrom publisher North Atlantic Books: \nThe Fire Inside explores the writings of Audre Lorde and James Baldwin through a Dharmic lens\, revealing for the first time how two of America’s greatest literary voices reflect—and expand—Buddhism’s most timeless truths toward justice and liberation. \nDr. Rima Vesely-Flad dives deeply into a dharma of liberation as lived by Baldwin and Lorde\, offering timely lessons to help us each meet this moment. She explores the writers’ enduring legacies to show that liberation depends not only on organizing and mass movements\, but the generative power of inner well-being\, authenticity\, art\, and embodiment. Each chapter shares how looking inward is the way forward\, examining Baldwin and Lorde through key Buddhist principles. \nThis book offers space for emerging conversations within spiritual communities—ones that don’t shy away from difficult or uncomfortable truths; that center—and celebrate—Black\, queer\, radical thought; and that embrace the ways our inner lives\, creative fire\, sensuality\, and expressions of love can ignite and sustain revolutionary liberation. \nThe Fire Inside will be for sale onsite\, courtesy of Nomadic Bookshop\, a nonprofit bookstore and cultural space in Oakland. \nPlease note the address for EBMC’s new space: \n2406 Webster St.\, Oakland\, CA \nDoors open 5:00pm\, event begins at 5:30pm \nThis event will be in-person. Space is limited to the first 200 people who register. \nCost: \nRegistration does not require a donation\, but the offering of a financial contribution is deeply appreciated and will support our center and programs. \nDonations are welcomed even if you’re unable to attend. \nFor a list of our offerings and more information please visit our website at www.eastbaymeditation.org. \n  \n \n  \nBIOGRAPHIES \n  \n \nRima Vesely-Flad\, PhD\, is the author of three books: The Fire Inside: The Dharma of James Baldwin and Audre Lorde (2026\, North Atlantic Books: Black Buddhists and the Black Radical Tradition: The Practice of Stillness in the Movement for Liberation (NYU Press\, 2022); and Racial Purity and Dangerous Bodies: Moral Pollution\, Black Lives\, and the Struggle for Justice (Fortress Press\, 2017).
