SUMMARY:Mindfulness in a CrAzy World with Beth Mulligan and Larry Yang
DESCRIPTION:How do we develop mindfulness and compassion in the midst of the world’s contradictory craziness?” Join us to explore mindfulness and loving-kindness practices in demanding and challenging times. \nThis First Noble Truth that there is suffering in our lives—seems to be even more apparent these days than not. We live in a world that encourages us to get away with as much as we can\, while giving as little as possible. Some leaders and messages in the larger culture encourage us to win at any cost\, to hoard as much material wealth as possible\, and to gain as much power as we can. One current advertising slogan paraphrases a cynical aphorism of doing things before asking any permission because it is easier to ask for forgiveness afterwards than to ask for permission. \nIs this how we wish to live our lives? We know if you are reading this you don’t\, however you may be asking\, “How do we develop mindfulness and compassion in the midst of this contradictory craziness?” Join us to explore mindfulness and lovingkindness practices in demanding and challenging times. Create the stillness and peacefulness internally\, that is so needed in the external world. We already have this peace within us\, sometimes\, like these times\, it just needs some extra space to emerge and become strong. The intention of this retreat is to provide this kind and open space for all of us. \nBeginning and experienced meditators are welcomed. Please bring a bag lunch. \nRegister\n  \n \nInstructors: \nBeth Mulligan\, PA-C is a certified Mindful Self Compassion Teacher and international teacher trainer. She was in the first group to be invited to MSC teacher training\, and has been teaching MSC with great passion and enthusiasm ever since\, at the UC Irvine Center for Integrative Medicine and Insight LA as well as providing workshops for professional caregivers. Beth is also a certified MBSR teacher and teacher trainer\, and adjunct faculty for the UMASS Center for Mindfulness. She has been teaching MBSR for over a decade to diverse populations; from the critically ill\, to non-profit organizations\, the underserved\, educators\, and corporate leaders. Beth has a background in primary care medicine as a Board Certified Physician Assistant and has practiced medicine for over 25 years. She is a senior student of Roshi Charles Tenshin Fletcher at Yokoji Zen Center where she has lived in residence\, and is the Guiding Dharma teacher at Insight Community of the Desert. \nLarry Yang teaches meditation retreats nationally\, and has a special interest in creating access to the Dharma for diverse multicultural communities. Larry has practiced meditation for almost 30 years\, with extensive time in Burma and Thailand\, and a six-month period of ordination as a Buddhist monk\, under the guidance of Ajahn Tong. He is on the Teacher’s Council of Spirit Rock Meditation Center\, is one of the core teachers of both East Bay Meditation Center (Oakland) and Insight Community of the Desert (Palm Springs). He is part of the coordinating team developing community meditation teachers in Spirit Rock’s Community Dharma Leadership Program\, and is leading the next Spirit Rock Dharma Teacher Training Program to begin in July\, 2017. Larry’s book Awakening Together: The Spiritual Practice of Inclusivity and Community will be published by Wisdom Publications in October 2017. \nCost: The registration fee for this event is $45. This fee is shared with the teacher(s)\, however does not mean the costs of the event or the teachings are fully covered. A dana (voluntary donations) collection will be taken at the day of the event\, and we encourage you to offer as much support of generosity as you are able. Please know that our policy is that no one is ever turned away for lack of funds. When people are able to extend as much generosity as possible\, financial accessibility to our events comes with greater ease for the whole community.

SUMMARY:Waking Up in RelationshipA half-day retreat and workshop with Cheryl Slean
DESCRIPTION:Relationship can sometimes seem like the last frontier of spiritual practice. Because there’s so much that goes on inside when we’re interacting with others\, it’s easy to lose awareness and fall back into old\, unhelpful habits of relating. Bringing receptive mindfulness and wise reflection to our encounters is not only possible\, it’s a deeply educational process that paves the way for significant positive change. \nThis half-day mindfulness workshop will focus on improving our relationships by including them in our daily life practice. Through reflection\, group process and meditation we’ll explore topics like compassion with safe boundaries\, forgiveness\, releasing the need to change or judge others\, and relational mindfulness practices. You’ll come away with skills and understandings that will help you find your way toward more harmonious\, compassionate and fulfilling relationships. \nRegister\n  \n \nInstructor: \nCheryl Slean has been practicing insight meditation intensively since 1995\, including hundreds of days of silent retreat. She was authorized to teach in 2007\, and has a Certification in Mindfulness Facilitation from the UCLA Mindful Awareness Research Center. She is currently serving on the Teachers’ Councils at Against the Stream and Insight Community of the Desert and regularly teaches classes and residential retreats at these centers and at other meditation\, health & wellness and business settings internationally. Cheryl is also a writer\, filmmaker and educator working in the arts and sustainability\, and is executive producer of VisionLA Climate Action Arts. For more information on Cheryl\, see www.aMindfulLife.org  \nCost: The registration fee for this event is $25. This fee is shared with the teacher(s)\, however does not mean the costs of the event or the teachings are fully covered. A dana (voluntary donations) collection will be taken at the day of the event\, and we encourage you to offer as much support of generosity as you are able. Please know that our policy is that no one is ever turned away for lack of funds. When people are able to extend as much generosity as possible\, financial accessibility to our events comes with greater ease for the whole community.

SUMMARY:Connecting to our Heart's Refuge with Ian Challis
DESCRIPTION:A sense of home or refuge — an internal base that offers shelter\, support and safety — is vital in an ever-changing\, unpredictable world. Buddhist teachings offer three universal refuges: Our own innate capacity for heart/mind awakening (Buddha)\, the refuge of practice and wisdom (Dharma)\, and the refuge of community (Sangha). \nJoin us for a day of practice and exploration of refuge as it relates to our lives and our world. Is it possible to bring a sense of home and refuge wherever we may find ourselves? \nWe will spend the day exploring mindfulness practices designed to strengthen and support this internal sense of refuge. We will also look at how this strong internal confidence and safety can be shared and supported with others through the practices of community: lovingkindness\, compassion and wise action. \nThe day will include periods of sitting meditation\, walking meditation\, short dharma talks and discussion. This event is suitable or new or experienced meditators. Please bring a lunch. \nRegister\n \nInstructor: \nIan Challis practices and teaches in the Insight Tradition of Buddhism. He is a regular teacher and founding board member at Insight Community of the Desert in Palm Springs. He also teaches at Meditation as Refuge\, Michael’s House\, and the Desert Meditation Group in Rancho Mirage. Ian has studied and sat residential retreats with Rodney Smith\, Santikaro\, Narayan Liebenson\, Larry Yang\, Leigh Brasington\, Sylvia Boorstein\, Tara Brach and Joseph Goldstein\, among many others. Ian is currently pursuing certification as a teacher of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction. In April 2017 he graduated from the Community Dharma Leaders Program of Spirit Rock Meditation Center. \nCost: The registration fee for this event is $45 with a sliding scale. This fee is shared with the teacher\, however does not mean the costs of the event or the teachings are fully covered. A dana (voluntary donations) may be made at the event\, and we encourage you to offer as much support of generosity as you are able. Please know that our policy is that no one is ever turned away for lack of funds. When people are able to extend as much generosity as possible\, financial accessibility to our events comes with greater ease for the whole community.
