## ☀️ Sunday Meditation & Book Discussion

San Diego Shambhala Meditation Center
Join us every Sunday at 10:00 AM at Full Circle Yoga for group meditation and a reflective book discussion grounded in compassion and courage.
Each week, we explore Pema Chödrön’s When Things Fall Apart, a guide to working with fear, uncertainty, and change while cultivating compassion and resilience in difficult times.
✨ Beginners warmly welcome!

### 📖 Current Book: When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chödrön

When Things Fall Apart is a collection of talks offering wisdom for navigating pain, uncertainty, and personal upheaval. Pema Chödrön, an American Buddhist nun in the Tibetan tradition, draws on Buddhist teachings to share practical ways of working with suffering. The book emphasizes meditation, mindfulness, compassion, and learning to relate differently to uncertainty and “groundlessness.”
