Introductory Book Course: Going Beyond Our Comfort Zone - Examining the Places that Scare Us
From January 17 to April 11, 2021 • Drop-ins welcome!
Please join us for an experiential exploration of cultivating fearlessness in difficult times. Beginning January 17, we will convene an 11-session class focused on an examination of Pema Chodron’s book, Places That Scare You. We will explore chapter by chapter this excellent book on awakening our own self-awareness, while also extending our best intentions towards others. In her experiential and heartfelt style, Pema reviews such topics as cultivating our fundamental awakened nature, getting beyond our armored protective mechanisms, learning to be still and listen, and cultivating joy, equanimity, compassion and loving kindness among other topics.
This course is for students of all levels.
