**Inner Safety in an Uncertain World** Thursdays, 7:15pm - 8:30pm In a world that often feels uncertain and overwhelming, we naturally look for something to rely upon — yet so often our sources of security let us down. In this two-week series, we will explore the Kadampa Buddhist practice of refuge, a powerful method for discovering a stable, inner source of protection and peace. Rather than turning outward, Buddha taught that real refuge is found within our own mind through developing wisdom, compassion, and inner strength. Through practical teachings and guided meditations, you will learn how to rely upon the Three Jewels — Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha — to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and clarity. This course is suitable for beginners and experienced meditators alike. **Class Titles:** June 11: What Is True Refuge?

***\*Both In-Person & Private Live-Streaming*** **The word anatta** – which means no permanently abiding self – is at the very heart and core of Buddhist meditation practice, yet it is one of its most misunderstood concepts. **When we explore anatta** through our meditation practice, it doesn’t mean we’re trying to get rid of who we are; it means we’re becoming more and more willing to see through the small, false, often negative ideas or beliefs of what we call “self.” **In actuality,** we are so much bigger than who or what we think we are. In fact, we are not only vast, but constantly fluid and changing: new in each moment, and dying in each moment … much like waves on the ocean. **During this silent meditation retreat,** we’ll be exploring anatta through various teachings, along with meditations designed to help us loosen our tenacious grip on the ego and sense of “self,” so that we can experience more freedom, peace, and ease in our lives. **The format will include** both guided and silent meditation, a dharma talk, and walking meditation both inside and on the lovely, spacious church grounds. Lunch will be in silence, and participants are asked to bring their own. **We’ll be gathering for our retreat on Saturday from 10 a.m. – 5:00 p.m** in the beautiful St. Francis Episcopal Church in Great Falls, VA. The peaceful interior is filled with large bright windows overlooking the great lawn and a canopy of trees. The expansive grounds include a special labyrinth, and many natural places to sit and walk. **The format will include both guided and silent meditation**, a dharma talk, and walking meditation both inside and on the lovely, spacious church grounds.

Calling distinguished guests, culinary visionaries, and seekers of higher understanding to join us for our monthly Yen Yen dinner gathering. For centuries, philosophers have debated the great mysteries of existence: What is our purpose? What defines destiny? Why does the complimentary almond cookie somehow taste better when someone else mentions it first? At the conclusion of the meal, honored attendees will receive the Twin Relics of Enlightenment: the almond cookie & the fortune cookie. One offers sweetness. The other offers vague life guidance that somehow always applies to at least one person at the table. This refined and highly serious culinary summit will feature: * strategic entrée negotiations. * casual social discourse. * analysis of fortune cookies. predictions with absolutely no scientific backing. * and the annual-level emotional anticipation of the dessert plate arriving. Cuisine: Chinese Group Size: 6 Peopel Dining: Separate checks Parking: Free onsite parking The meal ends, but the fortunes remain.

This offering, *Rest. Restore. Reconnect: When Slowing Down Feels Hard*, was born from a truth I know intimately — that rest isn’t always easy. That stillness can feel unfamiliar.

Through yin + restorative yoga therapy, you’ll be guided to release tension, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect with your body in a way that feels safe and sustainable. This is not about doing more. This is about allowing yourself to *be*. And because your experience matters beyond the mat, each session will close with a beautiful tea time — a moment to integrate, connect, and savor. There will be other thoughtful touches woven throughout… little surprises to deepen your experience and make each gathering feel like a retreat from the noise of everyday life. If you’ve been feeling stretched, overwhelmed, or disconnected… If your body has been asking you to slow down, but you haven’t known how… This space was created with you in mind. **[REGISTER HERE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rest-restore-reconnect-3-week-yin-restorative-popup-yoga-experience-tickets-1988229785811?aff=oddtdtcreator)** **DROP INS: $20.00 PER SESSION** **ALL THREE SESSIONS: $60.00** **TWO FOR ONE ALL THREE SESSIONS: $70.00 (invite a friend)** **DATES: Saturday, June 13, Saturday, June 20, and Saturday, June 27** **TIMES: 10 AM - 11 AM** ALL ARE WELCOMED Limited spots available — because intimacy, presence, and care are at the heart of this experience.

You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024
