SUMMARY:Wednesday Weekly Meditation and Talk with Ajahn Nisabho
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 Ajahn Nisabho for a live-streamed weekly meditation\, talk\, and discussion. After finishing college in 2012\, Ajahn Nisabho left his native Washington to go forth as a Buddhist monk in Thailand. He received full ordination the following spring under Ajahn Anan\, a senior disciple of renowned meditation master\, Ajahn Chah\, and spent the following years training in forest monasteries around the world with contemporary masters such as Ajahn Anan\, Ajahn Pasanno\, and Ajahn Jayasaro. In the summer of 2021\, he returned to Seattle to plant the first seeds of Clear Mountain Monastery. Learn more at www.clearmountainmonastery.org. \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 Ajahn Nisabho 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.

SUMMARY:Wednesday Weekly Meditation and Talk with Matthew Legge
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 Matthew Legge for a live-streamed weekly meditation\, talk\, and discussion. Matthew has worked in the nonprofit sector since 2006\, with a focus on building health\, dignity\, and human rights. He is the author of the award-winning book Are We Done Fighting? Building Understanding in a World of Hate and Division and writes a popular blog of the same name for Psychology Today. More at AreWeDoneFighting.com \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 Matthew and the 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.
