SUMMARY:ONLINE: Multiracial Peer-Led Deep Refuge Group
DESCRIPTION:The Multiracial Deep Refuge Group is a monthly exploratory Deep Refuge Group for and by people who identify as multiracial. Our meetings include periods of mindfulness meditation and sharing of narratives and perspectives as we come together to be seen and to see one another.

Our collective work bravely expands the narrative that informs multiracial experience today. Meets 7pm-9pm on the second Saturdays of every month. Online and occasionally hybrid (in-person at EBMC + online). \nNewcomers welcome- please contact us before your first visit: mrdrcoordinators at googlegroups dot com

SUMMARY:Transforming the Judgmental Mind
DESCRIPTION:with Shahara Godfrey and Donald Rothberg \nJudgments of a reactive and compulsive nature are very strong in most of our lives\, and in the dominant culture. They can distort our perceptions\, make relationships with others difficult and undermine our work in the world. \nIn this daylong\, we will examine what judgments are and how to work with them\, using mindfulness and lovingkindness practices (and a number of periods of silent practice)\, inquiry\, dyad work\, and role play. These will help us to transform the energy of judgments–preserving the intelligence and discernment often found in judgments\, while working through the destructive and compulsive aspects of judgments. We will also include exploration of how we may also internalize the prevailing judgments of our society in a number of ways\, particularly related to race and ethnicity\, gender\, sexual orientation\, employment status\, etc. \nSpace is limited and registration is requested. REGISTER HERE \nCost: There is no registration fee for attending this event\, nor most EBMC events. However\, EBMC is not independently funded.

SUMMARY:Compassionate Dharma Deep Refuge: 8 Step Recovery Buddhist Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The last Saturday of every month at EBMC\, 1:00 – 3:00 pm\n\nBeginning Saturday\, February 24th\, 2018\, and continuing on the last Saturday of every month\, EBMC offers a Recovery\, Deep Refuge Buddhist meeting with a 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.\n\nWe ask that you attend sober on the day with respect for others that may be active in recovery.  Open to all in Recovery.\n\nAdvance Registration is not required.\nFor additional information\, please contact:\nShahara Godfrey  slgvibing@earthlink.net

SUMMARY:Dharma in Motion: Restorative Yoga
DESCRIPTION:Restorative Yoga is a system of supported poses designed to calm the nervous system completely\, inviting a state of deep relaxation. Students rest and restore themselves mentally and physically from the fast and ongoing demands of modern life. During the class\, we unwind completely and allow ourselves to drift on the continuum between wakefulness and sleep. This is a class for anyone in need of a rest\, including beginners to yoga and people with injuries and illness. Multiple expressions of each pose will be offered and participants are invited to practice lying down\, seated\, or standing\, according to their own body wisdom and access needs. \nSatya de la Paz offers Yoga as a means of collective and personal liberation and decolonization: accessing our innate healing capacity through therapeutics and compassion\, meeting media-driven body shame through mindfulness and affirmation\, freeing the heart of resentment and blame\, and healing the mind of patriarchal ways of moving and acting. Satya is deeply grateful for her mentor\, Abby Tucker\, as well as all of her dharma and movement teachers\, Sally Kempton\, Rob Preece\, and Sianna Sherman. Drawing from the traditions of Anusara Yoga\, Buddhism\, and Tantra\, she empowers students to mindfully and compassionately while exploring their edge. \nNo Advance Registration Required\, Drop In Only
