The Art of Mindful Communication: Right Speech in a Post-Truth World
66:12

Oren Jay Sofer
|
|
Mindfulness practice provides a powerful support for clear, kind, and effective conversations. Join author and meditation teacher Oren Jay Sofer for this exploration of how our contemplative practice provides a foundation for bringing more compassion, clarity, and connection into our speech and relationships. In these polarized times, how can we speak and listen in a way that is aligned with our values? How can we hear others with divergent views?
Oren will be offering teachings from his new book, Say What You Mean: A Mindful Approach to Nonviolent Communication.

Integrating the Dhamma: A Monthlong Retreat in Your Daily Life
1:26:23
|
Kim Allen
|
|
The Dhamma is meant to be embodied, both on the cushion and in our daily lives - this makes it "onward-leading." This monthlong program will enliven our practice for the new year.
The Five Spiritual Faculties serve as tools to develop our Dhamma skills, and also to evaluate and balance our practice.
We will explore the Faculties through weekly meetings consisting of group practice discussion, teachings, and sutta readings. There will also be reflections to deepen and integrate our Dhamma understanding, and the support of spiritual friendship.

Creative, Curious, Caring

Nathan Glyde

There is always a way of looking and there is always something we can do. Exploring the poetry of fabricated life, and the creative juice we can bring to our practice. Wise action supports us to include what is arising; get intimate with it; feel the space around it all; transcend the petty towards the noble; and liberate love.

Reset Your Nervous System Meditation
10:07
|
Amita Schmidt

I learned this meditation in 2003 from Tibetan monk, Tsoknyi Rinpoche. He affectionately called it the “French Press” meditation because he wanted us to follow the exhale breath down into the belly in the same slow way the hand held coffee maker pushed the grinds to the bottom. Now somatic therapists and researchers know that a belly breath also connects with your vagal nerve, and you can reset your nervous system with just a few of these breaths. This meditation meditation combines breathing into the belly and grounding in stillness.
