SUMMARY:Practicing with Strong Emotions
DESCRIPTION:Practicing with Strong Emotions :\nSeeing our Difficulties as Opportunities for Growth \nOpen to all \n with John Mifsud  \nUndeniably\, strong emotions cause great stress. Suppressing them can increase our suffering.  Spaciousness helps us make healthful choices during difficult times.  Buddhist teachings offer many tools to work with challenging feelings and increase ease. \nOverwhelming feelings are a simply part of being human.  They can cause suffering.  Denying them can cause even more.  Opening to them can further our personal liberation.  In community\, we’ll build both the safety and the courage to proceed skillfully. \nAll sessions are stand-alone.  Attend any or all four.\nJune 4 th: Anger & Disappointment\nJune 11 th Love & Lust\nJune 18 th: Fear & Anxiety\nJune 25th: Grief & Loss \nRegistration: Registration is required and space is limited. Click HERE to register. \nCost: There is no registration fee for attending this event\, nor most EBMC events.  However\, EBMC is not independently funded. The Center and the teachers will be sustained only by your voluntary donations (the practice of generous giving\, or “dana”). Please donate generously\, in proportion to your ability: \n* Either online (you will be offered an opportunity during the online registration process to donate to EBMC; the teachers will not receive any part of this online donation).\n* Or at the event\, in the two baskets at EBMC\, one for the Center\, the second for the Teacher. \nThank you for your generosity.  EBMC will be only be sustained through our collective generosity. \nFragrance-free: In order to protect the health of community members with environmental illness\, please do not wear fragranced products (including “natural” fragrances) or clothes laundered in fragranced products to EBMC. \n  EBMC is wheelchair accessible.

SUMMARY:Healing the Oppressor Within: A Space for White Men to Explore the Intersection of Whiteness and Masculinity in the Context of the Dharma
DESCRIPTION:Open to White Men  \nwith Baruch Golden\, Gregory Mengel & Tom Malarkey \nWhite men\, including many of us who are committed to social justice\, continue to wreak havoc in our world. We are ill prepared to unlearn the patterns of oppression we enact in part because of the social conditioning we receive as young boys. We’ve been taught to “man up\,” “never show weakness\,” and “always have the answer.” This work\, however\, requires humility and vulnerability\, which are the precise opposite. In this daylong we will explore our personal and interpersonal views and beliefs about whiteness and maleness through small group work\, storytelling\, dharma teachings\, and mindfulness practices to help participants gain awareness of our conditioning and hold ourselves and each other with compassion. \nRegistration: Registration is required and space is limited. Click HERE to register. \nCost: There is no registration fee for attending this event\, nor most EBMC events.  However\, EBMC is not independently funded. The Center and the teachers will be sustained only by your voluntary donations (the practice of generous giving\, or “dana”). Please donate generously\, in proportion to your ability: \n* Either online (you will be offered an opportunity during the online registration process to donate to EBMC; the teachers will not receive any part of this online donation).\n* Or at the event\, in the two baskets at EBMC\, one for the Center\, the second for the Teacher. \nThank you for your generosity.  EBMC will be only be sustained through our collective generosity. \nFragrance-free: In order to protect the health of community members with environmental illness\, please do not wear fragranced products (including “natural” fragrances) or clothes laundered in fragranced products to EBMC. \n  EBMC is wheelchair accessible.

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
