EVERYDAY MINDFULNESS WITH JOSEPH EMET
4 WEEK SESSION STARTING TUESDAY NOVEMBER 29 AT 7:30 PM
Each session will start with a meditation on Calming the Mind as this is a much sought after outcome of meditation practice. Then, we will use the space that a calm mind provides to question our thinking habits as well as our habitual ways of doing everyday things. We will then consider the question:
Do our habits make us and others happy?

– RESILIENCE AND GROWTH IN TROUBLED TIMES –
with Chantal Jacques
(The theme for these sessions is inspired by Thich Nhat Hanh’s Calligraphy ‘’No Mud, No Lotus’’
and by Kaira Jewel Lingo’s book We Were Made for These Times.)
Chantal Jacques is a teacher in the Thich Nhat Hanh tradition, and she will guide the participants in an exploration of mindful practices that help one navigate through challenging situations such as loss, chronic pain, confusion, and heartbreak, while finding ways to transform our lived experience, ultimately keeping an open heart and mind to appreciate the richness and wisdom that these situations inspire.
These evenings are an opportunity to explore themes such as dwelling in our true home, accepting what is, learning how to care for our strong emotions, letting go, trusting the unknown and nurturing what is positive.
They will include guided meditation, sharing insights and mindful movement.
