We all need a little humor right now and the “cat lawyer” delivered. This is also a good time to review the classic teachings of the Anapanasati Sutra as a foundation for meditaiton, from basic mindfulness of breath to full awakening. This talk also includes a 10 minute guided metta meditation.
Join us for a dharma block party on February 13, 7-9 pm CT. Bring family and invite friends, make new ones, and help cultivate sangha with the gift of your presence. The evening will begin and end with fun new ways of connecting to the One Dharma community and beyond. For the middle hour, from 7:30-8:30 pm CT, there will be drop-in breakout rooms* so you can choose from different ways of moving, meditating, and more. And think about what you might want to share in the open mic break-out room. Let’s come together and share some joy! Suggested donation is $10 – $20 and can be made here. To join just click this zoom link. *Make sure you have Zoom version 5.3 or higher so that you can self select the rooms you want to go in and out of. For questions, email onedharmainfo@gmail.com.
Please join me for a casual, drop in guided meditation designed to create space, connect and ground us during this time of uncertainty and anxiety. I will also share a few dharma reflections and there will be an optional time for a brief check in. Let’s take this time to meet ourselves and each other just as we are, with compassionate presence and support as we prepare for the evening and beyond. Click here to connect by zoom.
This talk explores how true empathy and compassion occur when we are able to put ourselves inside the skin of others. When we are truly in contact with suffering (including our own) genuine compassion is born in us. The talk concludes with a boundless radiation lovingkindness practice.

During this pandemic, especially as we see it strengthening again this summer, fear is a part of the landscape for many. Even for those not directly afraid of the virus, meeting life with its immense uncertainty is often challenging. How do we find a calm steady place in our practice to meet fear and not knowing with equanimity?
