meet with others & explore mindfulness, inner peace, self acceptance & happiness
Details
We are a friendly group practicing mindfulness techniques, listening to inspiring CDs, watching live webcasts and discussing powerful ideas in books by some of the world’s greatest teachers in meditation, peace, compassion and self acceptance.
We share a piece of teaching through audio, visual or word and we discuss it. We take some time to actually meditate rather than just read about it. We are a mixture of long time practitioners to members who are brand new to these practices. We invite each other to share ideas as well as feedback about what direction people want to go next within the group.
We are interested in openness, wholeheartedness, compassion, awareness and presence. While we utilize inspiration from around the world, we also respect each individual’s wisdom and life experience finding equal inspiration and encouragement from each other in the journey of being authentically human.
Some of the teachers we explore include Brene Brown- The Power of Vulnerability, Pema Chodron- The Places that Scare You, Tara Brach-Radical Self-Acceptance, Stephen Hayes- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Jon-Kabat Zinn, Jack Kornfield, Rick Hansen -Buddha’s Brain, and Daniel Siegel -Mindsight among others.
