SUMMARY:ONLINE: Unhurried & Unbothered: Yoga for Radical Restoration
DESCRIPTION:with Keisha Turner  \nCultivating deep awareness requires us to slow down. There are many lessons waiting to be uncovered in silence\, stillness\, and slowness. Unhurried & Unbothered: Yoga for Radical Restoration is an invitation to practice slowing down as the antidote for the violent pace of capitalism. In each session\, the daily demands so many of us face to move quickly and do more will be greeted with the call to move slowly\, do less\, and treat our bodies and minds with great tenderness. We will practice poses that are slow\, sometimes repetitive\, and restorative in nature. 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. \nTo Attend via Zoom Video:  \nhttps://zoom.us/j/998581309 \nTo Attend via Zoom Audio (Phone):  \n1-669-900-6833 Meeting ID: 998581309#

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Unhurried & Unbothered: Yoga for Radical Restoration
DESCRIPTION:with Keisha Turner  \nCultivating deep awareness requires us to slow down. There are many lessons waiting to be uncovered in silence\, stillness\, and slowness. Unhurried & Unbothered: Yoga for Radical Restoration is an invitation to practice slowing down as the antidote for the violent pace of capitalism. In each session\, the daily demands so many of us face to move quickly and do more will be greeted with the call to move slowly\, do less\, and treat our bodies and minds with great tenderness. We will practice poses that are slow\, sometimes repetitive\, and restorative in nature. 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. \nTo Attend via Zoom Video:  \nhttps://zoom.us/j/998581309 \nTo Attend via Zoom Audio (Phone):  \n1-669-900-6833 Meeting ID: 998581309#

SUMMARY:ONLINE: The Buddha’s “How to” Guide to a Life of Happiness and Well-being
DESCRIPTION:with Mushim Ikeda \nEveryone wants to live and be happy\, yet human life is marked by suffering. Many are intimately and historically affected by social injustice\, and we all experience loss of what is dear to us\, sickness\, aging\, and death. How do we develop wisdom (insight) and spiritual strength (a practice that sustains us during the hard times)? The Buddha’s teaching of the Eightfold Path is a roadmap for a life well-lived. This class series will include interactive exercises\, meditation\, Dharma talks\, and discussion. Beginners in meditation are welcome. \nIn the spirit of Ahimsa\, we are offering this class ONLINE ONLY. All registered participants will be sent a Zoom link to attend via phone or computer.  \n \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. \nEBMC is wheelchair accessible.
