Preparing for the Holidays: Mini Retreat on Patience and Love

December 14th, 2024 | 10AM – 1PM

We all want to have meaningful holidays whether we are with family, friends or taking some time off for ourselves.  Sometimes it is hard to keep a peaceful mind during this busy time and we end up having experiences that fall short of our expectations.   If we train our mind in meditation we will have greater success in showing up as the person we want to be and joyfully accepting what comes our way.  

 

Session 1 Patience in action 

Session 2 Love is the real nuclear bomb 

 

Session 1 10 – 11:15 am

Come Together—Special Community Gathering

Silencing Your Inner Critic

Friday, November 22 | 7–8:15 PM

With Resident Teacher Anika Trancik

Many of us have a tendency to be excessively self-critical, self doubting, and lacking confidence. These debilitating thoughts can affect our relationships, our work, and our ability to realize our full potential in life.

In this class, we will learn how to use meditation to free ourselves from self critical thoughts, negative self-perceptions, and feelings of discouragement.

Everybody Welcome
