SUMMARY:ONLINE Compassionate Dharma Deep Refuge: 8 Step Recovery Buddhist Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Compassionate Dharma Deep Refuge Buddhist meetings focus on ways to heal addiction. Based on the Eight Steps to Recovery developed by Dr. Mason-John M.A (hon.doc) and Dr Groves\, we believe this inclusive approach can build a solid foundation for those at any level of recovery and for those who have yet to seek help. \nThrough these practices we hope you gain a practice that can sustain you in your recovery. \nWe ask that you attend sober on the day with respect for others that may be active in recovery.  Open to all in Recovery. \nAdvance Registration is not required. \nFor additional information\, please contact: \nShawna Adkins: blublackb at gmail dot com \nWalt Opie: waltopie at gmail dot com

DESCRIPTION:for Black\, Indigenous and People of Color  \nwith Arisika Razak \nBased on who we are. . . what we’ve been through. . . how we survive and where we stand\, we are on . . . sacred ground. We stand on the backs of our ancestors. -Ava DuVernay \nHow are our lives informed by the actions of our ancestors – our lineage ancestors\, our art and activist ancestors\, and our spiritual ancestors? What can we learn from their choices and experiences – and how do we integrate the multicultural lineages of warring peoples that we carry in our bodies? How can our experiences of intergenerational trauma provide a foundation for individual and community healing and the retrieval of ancestral wisdom? Join us for a half day of storytelling\, dharma teachings\, movement\, and art in which we compassionately examine our diverse ancestral histories\, celebrate our multicultural heritage/s and create a new liberation story. Please bring writing and/or art supplies with you – as well as an object that represents your innate connection to Spirit\, the ancestors or your personal power. \nParticipants will receive a link to join us via Zoom with their EventBrite confirmation email.
