Online: Meditation as an Act of Healing – Working with Fear and Anxiety Practicum
 
with Joseph Mauricio

These are challenging times. Learning to work with fear and anxiety is an important practice for anyone trying to maintain balance in their lives. Meditation can be an act of healing that allows us to reconnect to our humanity. Each time we put down the doomscrolling and return to the present, we reclaim our sanity.

Over time, meditation becomes a stabilizing act of kindness. The regularity of daily practice helps build resilience and emotional balance.  When we have the stability to face our fears, we can recognize the anxiety-based behaviors that actually increase insecurity and isolation. Then, by returning to the present we can choose to turn from punishing defensive behaviors toward healing and reconnection.

We can turn back to humanity. Meditation training helps cultivate a mindful awareness in our lives as we train the mind to recognize when its gripping to defensive thinking, and to then Release, return to the breath, and relax back into the flow. Remembering to stay human we build a powerful confidence that is healing to ourselves and to our world.

Join Senior Meditation Teacher Joseph Mauricio for a half-day practical workshop of instruction, discussion, and inspiration where we will discuss the 4 R’s of mindful awareness: Recognition, Release, Return and Relax.

This event is open to all levels of meditation experience.
