NY Insight Meditation Center via ZOOM - The Healing Journey Meets the Spiritual Path
I am pleased to be returning to New York Insight Meditation Center via ZOOM to present an evening workshop, "The Healing Journey Meets the Spiritual Path" on April 13, 2022, 7-9pm ET.
This workshop will be an exploration of how the teachings of the Buddha and mindfulness and compassion practice can be integrated in the process of facing and healing the dis-eases of our bodies, minds, hearts, and spirits. How we are with and relate to our pain and life’s difficult challenges is as important as what we do to treat them. We will sit with the questions: What is healing and how does it happen? How can we welcome and open to our pain and illness as an opportunity and the very vehicle for awakening, and what happens when we do? There is no cure for the human condition, there is the healing process and the spiritual path, and the liberating experience of facing painful truth. We’ll explore how being with the truth of suffering is at the heart of the healing journey and is the path to the end of suffering.
“When any experience of body, heart, or mind keeps repeating in consciousness, it is a signal that this visitor is asking for a deeper and fuller attention….Under all the tears, the pain, the fear, and the anger we have contracted ourself around, we can find freedom, joy, and ease in the face of all life.” – from Jack Kornfield, A Path with Heart
