Drop-in Session: Cultivating Self-Compassion through Metta Practice
Extending loving-kindness to others is often easier than extending it inward toward ourselves. This session will include a guided Metta meditation, a discussion of the barriers to self-compassion, and an opportunity to write your own mantra for self-compassion.
Drop-in Session: Try This On For Size: Short Meditations for Well-Being
This drop-in will involve several short meditations, each designed to help support well-being no matter where we find ourselves at the moment. We will practice and have brief interactive discussions to see what worked and what didn’t, as meditation is not one size fits all. This session will provide tools to keep in your back pocket for times of stress or hardship as well as to refuel and increase your happiness meter.
Drop-in Session: Beginner’s Mind for the New Year
As we begin a new year, let’s take a few minutes to discuss and reflect what it might mean to start the year with Beginner’s Mind. This is an opportunity for self-compassion and bringing a spacious awareness and openness to our meditation practice and to our lives. We will have time for guided meditation practice and optional sharing at the end.
Drop-in Session: Cultivating Gratitude
Noticing what we are grateful for and cultivating practices of gratitude can ease anxiety and increase our feelings of connection. This session will include a guided gratitude meditation, a discussion of the benefits of gratitude and an introduction of several gratitude practices that can be used throughout our daily lives.
