A Fundamental Part of Our Work
Many of us believe the myth: Soon things will be more settled. We invent and rely on an imaginary future in which everything will feel more stable once we get there.
We tell ourselves that relief is around the corner, as we confront the realities of endless doing, lists that produce more lists, and a depleting work life. We are over-caffeinated and undernourished — the low battery alert on our screens mirroring the realities of our inner life, as stress accumulates and even damages the miraculous ecosystem of the human body-heart-mind.
When we set our work down for a time, trusting that pausing is a fundamental part of our work, we can discover greater tranquility and resilience within and return to our lives and work with greater energy and vision.
From the mindfulness perspective, we can discover greater well-being when we learn to become aware of our moment-to-moment human experience. When we make time for stillness, authentically connect and relate to the fact that we are breathing, and reorient towards the range of our inner experience, we create the conditions for our deeper intelligences to come forth.
Although mindfulness-based practices do not magically solve everything, a growing body of research suggests that they empower individuals to respond more resourcefully to life’s challenges. Regular community-based meditation can reduce stress, improve health, and cultivate joy.
Mindfulness is not an intellectual endeavor or something we can master with a quick workshop. If we are curious, it asks for our long-term curiosity, patience, and the willingness to regularly gather in community and temporarily stop being busy.
Over time, we harness awareness, wisdom, and agency. We discover a deeper level of gratitude. We become empowered to speak and act in accordance with our highest good. We can become an even greater source of safety and support for those we serve.
Community Gathering | 60 or 90 minutes
These sessions foster connection, community, and a powerful sense of individual and collective learning. We take time to authentically be together while exploring a specific facet of awareness, presence, and self-growth in a way that feels natural and engaging. Community Gatherings include an introduction, guided meditation based on a particular theme, a teaching on that theme, and guided group dialogue and inquiry. Each session feels like a blend of reflection, insight, and shared discovery, creating a space that’s both meaningful and uplifting. There’s always room for curiosity, laughter, and deep conversation.
Example Session Themes:
Beginner’s Mind in the Service of Vision, Work, and Life – Approaching everything with fresh eyes and an open heart.
Embodiment: Liberating the Mind Through Awareness of Body – Tuning in, waking up, and feeling our aliveness.
Feelings! Taking in the Joy and Working with the Difficult – Embracing the full spectrum of emotions with wisdom and ease.
Wise Response: Discovering Equanimity in the Midst of Challenge – Learning to stay steady and grounded, no matter what life brings.
Expanding the Heart: Cultivating Love in All its Forms – Growing kindness, compassion, and joy in everyday life.
Group Meditation | 30 minutes
Together, we make time and space to return to presence and an inner stillness. We begin with a brief introduction and a group check-in, before moving into guided meditation. This means that we learn to deepen our connection to the present moment, which has all kinds of benefits. Over time, we learn how mindfulness is not just something we practice through sitting, but a way of being—woven into all aspects of life.
