They are like clouds that obscure the mind from seeing clearly. This course will offer an opportunity to explore how to practice with and understand these energies in our formal meditation practice as well as in our daily lives so that they can be skillfully abandoned. \nThere will be an opportunity for practice\, instruction\, and talks\, as well as group dialogue and inquiry. There will also be ongoing practice assignments each week to support the practical application of these teachings into your daily life. \nRegistration Fees include Teacher Support\nNew York Insight Meditation Center has streamlined the registration fee levels.
