SUMMARY:In-Person and Online: Belonging to the Earth - Touching Interbeing and Our Place in the Whole
DESCRIPTION:In-Person and Online: Belonging to the Earth – Touching Interbeing and Our Place in the Whole \nPart of The Body Remembers Freedom Series\n \nwith Kaira Jewel Lingo and Linds Roberts\n \nThursday\, April 9th\, 2026 | 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET \nIn-Person Location: New York Insight at 115 West 29th Street\, 12th Floor \n \nThis session explores what it means to belong to the Earth\, rather than stand apart from it. Through InterPlay and meditation\, we deepen our felt sense of interbeing and our relationship with the more-than-human world. We practice kincentric ways of being that invite humility\, care\, and a remembered place within the web of life. \nThis workshop is part of The Body Remembers Freedom\, a monthly series that brings together meditation\, dharma\, and embodied practice in a way that is relational\, grounded\, and alive. Each session includes time for meditation and contemplation\, a dharma talk or shared inquiry\, and InterPlay\, a playful and powerful practice using movement\, voice\, storytelling\, and deep listening to access the wisdom of the body. \nParticipants are supported to be: \n\nMore grounded and connected to their bodies and to one another\nMore accountable to themselves and to community\nReconnected to joy\, creativity\, and inner resource\nBetter able to meet life\, and themselves\, with compassion and presence\n\nIn times that can feel scary\, overwhelming\, or isolating\, these gatherings offer a place to put the phone down\, release accumulated stress\, and reconnect with what feels trustworthy and alive. We gather to remember the sacred in ordinary experience and to be held in the support of community. \nNo experience with meditation or movement is required. You are welcome exactly as you are\, with curiosity and a willingness to be present. \nThe Body Remembers Freedom is offered monthly on the first or second Thursday from 6:30 to 8:30 pm ET and is offered in a hybrid format. During the InterPlay portion of the evening\, Linds Roberts guides participants joining on Zoom\, while Kaira Jewel guides those attending in person. The full group then comes back together for the closing practice. You are welcome to register for a single session\, select multiple dates\, or join the full series at a discounted rate. \nSessions are recorded and shared with all registrants after the program\, so you are welcome to sign up even if you cannot attend live. \nRegister for one session or the full series (at a discount!) below.\n2026: April 9 | May 7 | June 18 | July 9 | August 6 \nIn-Person Registration:\nIn-Person Single Session\nIn-Person Full Series\n  \nOnline (Zoom) Registration:\nOnline Single Session\nOnline Full Series\n  \nVolunteering \nAll of our programs rely on volunteers to support our teachers and staff with various tasks and responsibilities.

SUMMARY:In-Person: By This Light - An Evening of Meditation and Chanting
DESCRIPTION:In-Person: By This Light – An Evening of Meditation and Chanting \nwith Nina Wise \nFriday\, April 24th\, 2026 | 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET \nLocation: New York Insight at 115 West 29th Street\, 12th Floor \n \nYou may feel your daily practice has become less compelling—missing the warmth and inspiration that once drew you in. While sacred music is known to uplift the heart and soothe the mind\, it is often left out of our daily dharma practice. Without it\, practice can feel rote and disconnected from devotion\, community\, and inner joy. \nBy This Light offers an evening of meditation and chanting\, celebrating Nina’s new album By This Light\, a collection of Buddhist chants and blessings. Through guided meditation\, teachings on Buddhist chants that can be easily incorporated into your practice\, and opportunities to gently sing along\, participants will experience the power of sound as a spiritual anchor. \nYou’ll leave with a greater sense of ease and well-being\, simple chanting practices to bring into daily life\, and a deeper sense of inner calm and belonging. \nJoin us to reconnect with the heart of your practice and rediscover the transformative power of sacred sound. \nRegistration:\nPlease register below. If you are able\, registering at the “Supporter” level enables others to attend at the “Subsidized” level. Thank you for your generosity! (Please note that the registration price includes a base level of teacher support\, and you will have the opportunity to donate more after the program.) \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. \nBring a Buddy: If you are a member of our Circle of Friends\, you’re invited to bring a Dharma buddy to this program for no additional cost.
