Day of Practice

Saturday, September 17th

A Mind Like the Sky:
Living in the Vastness of Life

7-10am PT / 10am-1pm ET / 3-6pm BST / 4-7pm CEST

Learn to tap into a sense of spaciousness in any situation.

Amidst the details, dramas and distractions of everyday life, we can easily lose ourselves, lose our focus, lose our minds.

I’ll be in New York for this day of practice. Together we’ll look at the myriad ways our attention gets seduced, and learn to use the quality of spaciousness in order to stay present amidst life’s intensities.

We’ll practice feeling for and finding space inwardly and outwardly, and around whatever may be happening, using this space to focus the mind and relieve the heart. We’ll explore sky-gazing meditation and sound meditation as forms of spaciousness practice, as well as walking meditation adapted for city life.

Through this program you will learn how to:

  • Unhook from distractions and re-establish grounded presence
  • Implement meditative awareness when you’re feeling lost
  • Recognise the inherent spaciousness of mind using sky-gazing meditation

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.

How can I prepare?

We recommend preparing a space to sit comfortably and quietly for this three-hour duration.

Our program will be hosted on Zoom. Please download Zoom in advance/ensure that you have the latest version of Zoom downloaded for optimal experience.

Your Zoom link will be emailed to you upon registration, and we’ll send you a reminder email 1-hour prior to the event.

Cost

Day of Practice is offered on a sliding scale basis, with a suggested rate of $35. There will also be an opportunity to provide dana (generosity) during the event. No one turned away for lack of funds.

Your generosity supports the teacher and their transmission of the Dharma, as well as the accessibility of Sangha Live programming.
