8-Week Series with Meg Agnew & Rebecca Denk

The intention of this program is to encourage a deepening of our meditation practice and, within the refuge of sangha (spiritual community), to share insights and support for living with wisdom and compassion. We’ll begin each of our 8 online meetings with a half-hour of meditation followed by an investigation of Real Change: Mindfulness to Heal Ourselves and the World by Sharon Salzberg.

This newly published book, written by the author of Lovingkindness, is intended to support those of us who work for personal and societal transformation. It is a guide that inspires us with stories of individuals and teams who are making a difference in our world while teaching us how to avoid feeling overwhelmed and burned out. In the author’s own words, it was written to “convey how to navigate these waters of action and awareness in the healthiest ways possible.”

“Inspiring, loving, and empowering. The perfect medicine for these difficult times.” ~Jack Kornfield
