SUMMARY:ONLINE: Turning Towards Our Body During a Time of Turbulence\, Suffering and Fear
DESCRIPTION:A four class series exploring the four foundations of Mindfulness with Vimalasara Mason John.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWednesdays\, July 15th\, 22nd\, 29th and August 5th   7:00-8:30PM PST  \nwith Vimalasara Mason John \nThe Buddha taught the four foundations of mindfulness as a way to gain freedom from the external and internal worlds that we live in. During times of PandemicS Covid 19\, racial and social injustices it is inevitable that many of us will flee the body\, switch all feelings of and run to the comfort of our thoughts\, and many other distractions. The hardest thing many of us will ever do is coming back to the breath\, to the body\, to feelings. If we want liberation we have to find a way back to the body. During this 4 week course we will journey through the 4 tetrads of the Mindfulness of Breathing\, working with the body\, feelings\, thoughts\, the nature of all things. We will cultivate metta to access the ancient practice of the four foundations of mindfulness\, to help us see more clearly during these turbulent times of pandemics and uprisings. It will be held with kindness\, giving space to anyone who would like to have a compassionate inquiry into whatever arises during the course. This course is for anyone who is ready to rediscover the elixir of the breath and the salve of loving-kindness. \nRegistered participants will receive a link to join us via Zoom with their EventBrite confirmation email.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Turning Towards Our Body During a Time of Turbulence\, Suffering and Fear
DESCRIPTION:A four class series exploring the four foundations of Mindfulness with Vimalasara Mason John.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWednesdays\, July 15th\, 22nd\, 29th and August 5th   7:00-8:30PM PST  \nwith Vimalasara Mason John \nThe Buddha taught the four foundations of mindfulness as a way to gain freedom from the external and internal worlds that we live in. During times of PandemicS Covid 19\, racial and social injustices it is inevitable that many of us will flee the body\, switch all feelings of and run to the comfort of our thoughts\, and many other distractions. The hardest thing many of us will ever do is coming back to the breath\, to the body\, to feelings. If we want liberation we have to find a way back to the body. During this 4 week course we will journey through the 4 tetrads of the Mindfulness of Breathing\, working with the body\, feelings\, thoughts\, the nature of all things. We will cultivate metta to access the ancient practice of the four foundations of mindfulness\, to help us see more clearly during these turbulent times of pandemics and uprisings. It will be held with kindness\, giving space to anyone who would like to have a compassionate inquiry into whatever arises during the course. This course is for anyone who is ready to rediscover the elixir of the breath and the salve of loving-kindness. \nRegistered participants will receive a link to join us via Zoom with their EventBrite confirmation email.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: 4 Divine Abodes in Challenging Times: A 1-Day Silent Retreat
DESCRIPTION:with Rev. Liên Shutt \nAs we continue to endeavor in creating a just and liberatory world in these shifting times\, the teachings on the 4 Divine Abodes can help us stay centered and connected. \nQualities of Kindness\, Compassion\, Inclusive Joy\, and Equanimity can be hard to access when there’s internal or worldly turmoil. Practicing these Abodes as guided meditations helps us to know them — for ourselves and to be able to send out to others. \nJoin for the full day or come in/out as you’re able. There will be short teachings and 2 short meditations per Abode quality. However\, please try to TIME your entering/exiting to coincide with scheduled times to allow for the event manager to be able to participate also. \nNOTE: Teachings on each Divine Abode are only at the times marked. Therefore\, if possible\, please join at the beginning for the Introductions & 1st Teachings to get the full sense of how these are best practiced. ALL Meditations are visualized guided meditations. The 2nd in each Abode section will be mostly silent for your own personalization. Full schedule provided to registered participants. \nRegistered participants will receive a link to join us via Zoom with their Confirmation Email from EventBrite.  \n \n

DESCRIPTION:For Self Identified People of Color  \n\nSaturday\, September 12th 9:30AM – 3:30PM PST \nwith Rev. Liên Shutt \nAt certain times in our lives\, it can feel hard to know what to do. Are you at a point in your life in which you feel like it’s time for a change but not sure how to proceed? \nChange can be hard. Especially if it’s not one that we’ve chosen: a job or relationship loss\, an illness\, or other life-transition events. At such time\, thinking about all the possible options can feel confusing: “Should I do what I’ve always wanted to do or stay with what I know? Go towards my ‘heart’s desire’ or get more training?” \nTo make a gift to sustain the teachings\, please do so via Venmo: @Lien-Shutt. \nAll registered participants will receive a link to join us via Zoom with their Confirmation Email from Eventbrite.  \n \n  \n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Potions for the Poisons: Heart Medicine for Our Times
DESCRIPTION:A Four Class Series with Melvin Escobar \nMondays\, September 14th\, 21st and 28th 7:00 – 8:30PM PST \nIn the Buddhist teachings\, the Three Poisons (greed\, hatred\, and delusion) are the primary causes of suffering. Arguably\, these three poisons are more widespread than ever in our world. In this 3-week class series\, we will explore these unwholesome roots of our unease and the potions\, or antidotes\, to these poisons. Through stationary and gentle moving meditation\, interactive exercise\, talks\, and recommendations for home practice\, we will use contemporary psychological frameworks\, informed by an understanding of structural oppression\, to transform the poisons and live a life of true happiness. \nRegistered participants will receive a link to join us via Zoom.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Tender Self Care in the Midst of Pain
DESCRIPTION:An Online Class For People Living with Disability\, Illness or Chronic Pain with Deb Kerr and Kenji Oshima \nIn this online meditation retreat\, we will explore the possibility of finding space and ease\, even while dealing with painful conditions of body or mind. Mindfulness and sangha are powerful tools for finding ways of working with pain\, for lessening isolation\, and for increasing our compassion\, both for our own pain\, and for the pain of others. There will be guided and silent meditation\, movement practice\, lovingkindness and compassion practice\, as well as small and large group discussions and dharma talks. As we work with pain\, we will also find ways of inviting pleasure and joy into the day. \nRegistered participants will receive a link to join us via Zoom with their EventBrite email.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Potions for the Poisons: Heart Medicine for Our Times
DESCRIPTION:A Four Class Series with Melvin Escobar \nMondays\, September 14th\, 21st and 28th 7:00 – 8:30PM PST \nIn the Buddhist teachings\, the Three Poisons (greed\, hatred\, and delusion) are the primary causes of suffering. Arguably\, these three poisons are more widespread than ever in our world. In this 3-week class series\, we will explore these unwholesome roots of our unease and the potions\, or antidotes\, to these poisons. Through stationary and gentle moving meditation\, interactive exercise\, talks\, and recommendations for home practice\, we will use contemporary psychological frameworks\, informed by an understanding of structural oppression\, to transform the poisons and live a life of true happiness. \nRegistered participants will receive a link to join us via Zoom.
