EBMC is hiring a Programs Director!
“All of us have a natural brilliance that is yearning to come out and be expressed in the daily activities of our life, including our work. This spark longs to be seen by others not in a superficial, attention-getting way, but in the most authentic way possible. Buddhists call this “Buddha-nature,” our awakened self. It is luminous and radiant, and it is a gift we give to others.”
― Maia Duerr, Work That Matters

ONLINE: Cultivating Home in Our Hearts
Cultivating Home in Our Hearts: A daylong for adult adoptees and fostered, or child welfare system survivors
With Fresh “Lev” White, Sean Feit Oakes, Phoenix Song
Saturday December 10th 2022
10AM – 4PM PT (Time Zone Converter)
This class is for us who experienced separation from birth families at early ages to explore the heart of the Buddha’s teachings: that pain and loss are built into life and are the seeds of wisdom and liberation. We’ll explore the wounds and potential gifts of adoption, and practices to support self-love, compassion, and the cultivation of deep refuge in the world.
All adult (18+) adoptees, formerly foster home or system youth, and any adult who were forced/separated from their birth family at young ages are welcome. Please have food, drink, or other comfort items available as needed.
