This week’s topic is “Longing for Belonging; Becoming Intimate with Expansion and Contraction”.

 

Although people are more connected than ever through technology, there seems to be a global trance of “not belonging”. In this week’s sessions we will explore how we separate from our own selves and from others, and above all how we can come home to all our parts and sink back into a sense of belonging.

    Daily Meditation Recordings, with Zohar Lavie – Week of July 12, 2021

    This week’s theme is: Equally Close to All Things: Explorations in Equanimity.

    Life includes both pleasant and unpleasant experiences, ups and down, joys and sorrows. Equanimity invites us to meet all of these with tenderness and poise and to nurture the capacity to be equally close to all things. Can we cultivate more spaciousness, intimacy and calm in the midst of life? This week we will explore finding a deeper, more stable wellbeing, a wellbeing that is not dependant on the external circumstances of our lives.

    Settling Into Your Body In Meditation

We will examine various postures and do various techniques that can be helpful for meditating.
