LifeArt Monday - Tonight with Lezlie Laws at 6:30pmET
Why Do You Meditate

I’m wondering. Just why do you meditate? Why do you bother taking time out of your day to be silent and alone? Are you getting smarter, thinner, happier, wiser? Have you fixed yourself? Or maybe you’re going for Enlightenment. How’s that going for you? Are you One with the Universe yet?

Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche says this:

Meditation is a practice is regarded as a good and in fact excellent way to overcome warfare in the world: our own warfare as well as greater warfare.

So how is the war going for you? Let’s talk!!

Join me on Monday night, October 12, at 6:30 p.m for meditation provocative conversation and deep meditation.

More information about these sessions:

LifeArt Meditation offers teachings on contemporary teachers, scholars, and thought leaders. In each session we discuss techniques and attitudes necessary for a robust contemplative practice. We explore ways of making our daily practice more enjoyable and more fruitful. In addition, we discuss how the effects of the practice are showing up in our daily encounters.

In other words, we seek to see how a contemplative practice really does begin to shape the tone and tenor of our moments, and our lives. While tone focuses on the specific attitude or emotion conveyed (e.g., optimistic, harsh), tenor represents the broader, underlying character, theme, or general course of thought. We want to examine just how meditation is making life better, more interesting, and maybe even more challenging.
Each session is comprised of three parts:

  • a short “lifestyle” talk
  • a 20 minute meditation
  • a 20 minute Q&A

We invite you to spend a few sessions with each of the three teachers of LifeArt Meditation. We bring different styles, topics, and influences to each session. Lezlie Laws will lead the second Monday session (March 9th), April Koester will lead the third Monday session (March 16th), and Susan Baxter is on for the fourth Monday (March 23rd) of each month.

Logistics:
Online only, 6:30-7:30 pm ET on the second, third, and fourth Mondays of the month.
