SUMMARY:Wednesday Weekly Meditation and Talk with Oren Jay Sofer
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 Oren Jay Sofer for a live-streamed weekly meditation\, talk\, and discussion. Oren teaches meditation and communication internationally. He holds a degree in comparative religion from Columbia University and is a Certified Trainer of Nonviolent Communication and a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner for the healing of trauma. He is the author of several books\, including the best-seller Say What You Mean: A Mindful Approach to Nonviolent Communication and his latest book\, Your Heart Was Made for This: Contemplative Practices to Meet a World In Crisis with Courage\, Integrity\, and Love. His teaching has reached people around the world through his online communication courses and guided meditations. More info at www.orenjaysofer.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 Oren 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 Daniel Ellenberg
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 Daniel Ellenberg for a live-streamed weekly meditation\, talk\, and discussion. Daniel Ellenberg\, PhD is a psychologist\, leadership coach\, and the founder of Strength with Heart men’s groups and workshops. He is a past president of the American Psychological Association (APA) division on men and masculinities and the founder/director of the Men and Boys Compassion Initiative through the Global Compassion Coalition (GCC). He is currently co-writing a book for men called Strength with Heart and contributed a chapter in A Global Dialogue on Masculinity. He has spent his entire career helping people\, particularly men\, navigate their lives more mindfully\, skillfully\, and compassionately and has worked extensively on helping people be courageous and mindful in their interpersonal communication. \nAnd on March 12th\, Daniel will be leading a panel discussion called Growing Compassion for Men & Boys\, which will include the panelists’ experiences\, research findings\, and practical recommendations on both why we need to focus on compassion and self-compassion as essential male traits and how we can overcome the factors that stop compassion and self-compassion from becoming core male traits. \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 Daniel 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.
