March 22 - April 12, 2025
The skills of meditation are life skills – ways of engaging with the flow of thought, sensation, emotion, and instincts through our bodies and minds. The essence of all meditation skills is to be friendly toward yourself, toward life itself.
Class 1: Meditation is Natural and Effortless
Mar 22, 2025 at 12 Noon PT
In our first class, we will explore how meditation can be a completely natural and effortless experience when we find doorways that are easily accessible to us. By taking a relaxed approach—whether exploring profound experiences or attending to subtle skills like mindful breathing or sensory awareness—we experience meditation as a natural extension of what we already cherish.
Class 2: Honoring Your Natural Rhythm
Mar 29, 2025 at 12 Noon PT
In this class, we honor your natural rhythm, letting go of judgment and welcoming all thoughts and sensations as part of a light, open-hearted meditation practice that feels authentic and comfortable. You will practice welcoming the movement of your awareness through thoughts, feelings, and sensations as completely natural and an ongoing part of your integration.
Class 3: Attending to Senses, Emotions, and Connections
Apr 5, 2025 at 12 Noon PT
We explore embracing sensations and emotions as part of an effortless practice, treating meditation as a journey through shifting experiences. We welcome the experiences that arise in our practice as we attend to our relationships and connections.
Class 4: Welcoming the Whole Self with Tenderness
Apr 12, 2025 at 12 Noon PT
In our final class, we hone in on self-compassion, welcoming all emotions, and non-judgment. We'll explore how to be kinder to ourselves in meditation, accept whatever arises, and observe without judgment. We'll also touch on inner landscapes and integrating the different parts of ourselves.
