“The sky does not make drama out of weather passing through. The wide-open heart makes similarly effortless and wide-open space for the stuff of everyday mind. There is no contention with experience. No friction. The absence of anxiety about imperfection. You care deeply, but you don’t mind. Whatever happens.”
–Martin Aylward, Awake Where You Are
As we navigate the storms of our inner and outer lives, we often find ourselves caught in reactivity – distracted by thoughts, tense in the body, guarded and bracing for impact.
Yet it is essentially, profoundly human, to long for a mind at ease, and a heart undefended and at peace.
Join Sangha Live’s founding and guiding teacher Martin Aylward for a rich and transformative Day of Practice together, looking at simple and effective ways of taking care of your heart and mind.
We’ll spend time looking at mental and emotional habits, how to get some space around them, finding ease within them, and knowing freedom from them.
