SUMMARY:Wednesday Weekly Meditation and Talk with Michael Gayner
DESCRIPTION:Much research has shown that meditation is one of the very best ways to cultivate the brain states of self-awareness\, calm and inner peace\, lovingkindness\, mindfulness\, and happiness – as well as strengthen the immune system and nurture other health benefits. \nJoin guest teacher Michael Gayner for a live-streamed weekly meditation\, talk\, and discussion. Michael was the Executive Director of Drala Mountain Center from 2012 to 2023\, and has been practicing meditation since the mid-1980s. He has a Ph.D. in Education with a focus on holistic education\, and on the intersection of teaching and spiritual practice. Michael is presently serving as the Chief Operating Officer of the Global Compassion Coalition\, and has a coaching and consulting practice. \nThese teachings are offered freely\, at no charge. And if you like\, you may wish to participate in the age-old tradition of generosity through making an offering yourself – called “dāna” – to support Michael and Rick’s Wednesday Meditations. Generosity itself is a beautiful practice that opens and gladdens the heart\, relaxes the contraction of “self\,” and ripples out into the world to touch many people – and perhaps\, eventually\, even oneself.
