SUMMARY:ONLINE: Embracing Change: Zen & the Art of Creating a Life You Want for People of Color
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: Honoring Our Ancestors
DESCRIPTION:with 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. \nRegistered participants will receive a link to join us via Zoom with their EventBrite Confirmation.

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.
