SUMMARY:Online: Finding Contentment in the Midst of Life's Challenges
DESCRIPTION:Online: Finding Contentment in the Midst of Life’s Challenges\n \nwith Scott Tusa\n \nTuesday\, December 5th\, 2023 | 6:30pm – 8:00pm ET\n \n\n \n“If your everyday practice is to open to all your emotions\, to all the people your meet\, to all the situations your encounter without closing down\, trusting that you can do that – then that will take you as far as you can go. And then you’ll understand all the teachings that anyone has ever taught.” – Pema Chodron \n“Life is not a problem to be solved\, but a reality to be experienced.” – Soren Kierkegaard\, The Heart of  Compassion \nLife doesn’t always go the way we want. Rather than bypassing its challenges when they come up\, meditation offers us an opportunity to look towards in order to find true contentment. \nContentment does not come from ignoring suffering\, but rather happens when we are able to meet and be curious about our fuller human experience. Eventually the kindness and space we can provide towards our own suffering becomes the kindness and compassion we can express towards others. \nIn this online evening talk\, and through periods of meditation\, experiential learning\, and discussion\, we will explore how to meet life’s challenges with more awareness\, compassion\, and ease. \nYou’ll learn how to:\n-Access a more grounded and open meditative awareness practice\n-Connect with a more embodied and compassionate way of being in your daily life\n-Integrate core Buddhist teachings into direct experience \nRegistration:\nPlease register at the highest level that your generosity offers.\nExplanations of levels follow below.\nIf you are registering via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet\, you can scroll right and left and up and down within the below form if it is partially obscured or cut off.\nCLICK HERE to open the registration form in a new browser window.\nPlease contact registration@nyimc.org if you need assistance. \n \nRegistration Fees include Teacher Support\nNew York Insight Meditation Center has streamlined the registration fee levels.

SUMMARY:Online: The Dharma of Craving - Abandoning Attachment\, Opening to Connection
DESCRIPTION:Online: The Dharma of Craving – Abandoning Attachment\, Opening to Connection \n \nwith Walt Opie\n \nThursday\, December 14th\, 2023 | 7:00pm – 9:00pm ET\n \n\n \n“As a result of desire\, we may also lose connection to others.”\n– Sharon Salzberg\, Lovingkindness: The Revolutionary Art of Happiness \nThe Buddha had much to say about how craving causes suffering\, comparing it to a spider caught in its own web. \nWhen we get caught up in various forms of craving\, desire\, and attachment\, we are often blocked from deeper connection with ourselves and others in our lives. It can be as if we are living with blinders on. \nBut even if we happen to get what we desire\, our satisfaction is usually fleeting and short-lived\, which can leave us feeling lonely\, isolated\, and alone. \nWhat is the solution? Join Insight meditation teacher Walt Opie for an evening exploring how we get caught by craving\, how it blocks us from meaningful connection\, and how we can effectively move through it. \nTogether we will discuss and engage in experiential practices to cultivate generosity and gratitude\, establish moment-to-moment mindful awareness\, and learn how to simplify our lives through wise renunciation. \nRegistration:\nPlease register at the highest level that your generosity offers.\nExplanations of levels follow below.\nIf you are registering via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet\, you can scroll right and left and up and down within the below form if it is partially obscured or cut off.\nCLICK HERE to open the registration form in a new browser window.\nPlease contact registration@nyimc.org if you need assistance. \n \nRegistration Fees include Teacher Support\nNew York Insight Meditation Center has streamlined the registration fee levels. Members of our Circle of Friends are eligible to receive 20% off of the Sustaining Rate via a code provided in the email confirming membership\, which you can enter after clicking the Sustaining Level registration. \n*Benefactor Level: Supports NYI’s ability to offer the Subsidized Base. \n**Sustaining Level: This level reflects the actual costs to support this program.
