Day of Practice

Saturday, March 4th

Metta-Vipassana:
A Tool for Liberating
Heart and Mind

7-10am PT / 10am-1pm ET / 3-6pm GMT / 4-7pm CET

How can loving-kindness help us awaken to our full potential?

Vipassana meditation (insight or mindfulness practice) unites the stillness of concentration with the immediacy of moment-to-moment experience. As we learn to calm the body and mind, intuitive wisdom arises. This allows us to open to the truth of each moment’s experience within and around us, and to meet life’s ups and downs with ease and presence.

Metta (Loving-Kindness) meditation practice calls forth the beautiful spiritual emotions within our heart: lovingkindness, compassion, appreciative joy and equanimity. Mindfulness of these qualities strengthens and brings them into fruition, guiding us towards awakening to our full truth.

During this Day of Practice, students will deepen their liberation practice in an atmosphere of kind awareness. This will include guided meditations, Dharma teachings, Q&A with our teacher, and some time to process what arises.  

All are welcome to participate, regardless of any prior meditation experience.

During this program, you will:

  1. Learn the fundamental practice, theory, and application of mindfulness
  2. Explore the relational aspects of mindfulness
  3. Understand how to integrate metta and mindfulness practice

What is Day of Practice?

Sangha Live’s 3-hour, LIVE Day of Practice allows for you to drop in deeper, develop your meditation skills, and reset your intentions through sustained sitting.

Days of Practice includes longer periods of meditation, interspersed with wise teachings, an interactive Q&A with our teacher, and more.

Replay access will be available to all registrants within 48 hours of the live session.

How is Day of Practice different from Sangha Live’s Daily/Sunday classes?

Our shorter Daily Meditation (60 mins) and Sunday Sangha (90 mins) programs emphasize dharma teachings, while our longer Days of Practice (3 hours) emphasize development of meditation practice.

Daily practice is crucial for watering seeds of mindfulness, but extended periods of deep attention such as these, away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, can be uniquely fruitful.

Cost

Day of Practice is offered on a sliding scale basis, with a suggested rate of $35. We wholeheartedly welcome all to practice with us; no one turned away for lack of funds.
