SUMMARY:Overcoming Difficult Emotions in the Midst of COVID-19...Or Any Other Time with Karuna Cayton
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to host the author of the book “The Misleading Mind”\, Karuna Cayton\, for an interactive class April 28-May 19. We will delve into modern day psychological questions that have arisen as a result of the Coronavirus but still affect us throughout our life. We will look at how emotional and psychological problems arise\, what are their causes and how can we work with them. But we will approach these questions from a Buddhist psychological approach. Since Buddhism offers a complete psychology there should be an explanation of how to deal with our emotional struggles such as anxiety\, depression\, regret and so on. While this class is not designed to actually solve these problems we can hopefully get a glimpse of how we can approach them from an Buddhist psychological perspective. Questions and discussion welcomed! \nCost: Suggested Donation $10-$20 per class\, no one turned away for lack of funds. Donate online through our website: https://www.diamondlightsac.org/donate/ or Venmo\, search “Diamond Light” \nTo join the virtual classroom\, click the link: https://us04web.zoom.us/j/2247358115\nMeeting ID: 224 735 8115 \nKaruna Cayton has been a practicing Buddhist for over 45 years. From 1975-1988 he lived at Kopan Monastery working fot the late Lama Thubten Yeshe. Upon returning to the US he got his Masters in clinical psychology and has worked for over thirty years Karuna has worked as a psychotherapist (MFT31860)\, teacher\, business psychologist\, and coach to help people achieve a more balanced life. His mission is to interpret the ancient teachings of Buddhist thought into modern language and interventions…without changing the purity of these universal ideas.

SUMMARY:Overcoming Difficult Emotions in the Midst of COVID-19...Or Any Other Time with Karuna Cayton
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to host the author of the book “The Misleading Mind”\, Karuna Cayton\, for an interactive class April 28-May 19. We will delve into modern day psychological questions that have arisen as a result of the Coronavirus but still affect us throughout our life. We will look at how emotional and psychological problems arise\, what are their causes and how can we work with them. But we will approach these questions from a Buddhist psychological approach. Since Buddhism offers a complete psychology there should be an explanation of how to deal with our emotional struggles such as anxiety\, depression\, regret and so on. While this class is not designed to actually solve these problems we can hopefully get a glimpse of how we can approach them from an Buddhist psychological perspective. Questions and discussion welcomed! \nCost: Suggested Donation $10-$20 per class\, no one turned away for lack of funds. Donate online through our website: https://www.diamondlightsac.org/donate/ or Venmo\, search “Diamond Light” \nTo join the virtual classroom\, click the link: https://us04web.zoom.us/j/2247358115\nMeeting ID: 224 735 8115 \nKaruna Cayton has been a practicing Buddhist for over 45 years. From 1975-1988 he lived at Kopan Monastery working fot the late Lama Thubten Yeshe. Upon returning to the US he got his Masters in clinical psychology and has worked for over thirty years Karuna has worked as a psychotherapist (MFT31860)\, teacher\, business psychologist\, and coach to help people achieve a more balanced life. His mission is to interpret the ancient teachings of Buddhist thought into modern language and interventions…without changing the purity of these universal ideas.

SUMMARY:Mindfulness for Stressful Times with Sunil Joseph
DESCRIPTION:Topic:  Mindfulness for Stressful times\nDate:  Saturday\, April 25th\nTime: 9:30 am – 5:00 pm  [lunch at 12 noon – 1:30 pm]\nDescription:\nAccording to meditation teacher\, Tara Brach\, we get lost in our thoughts and cut off from our hearts when we get lost in our trance of busily speeding through the day. In her book Radical Compassion\, Tara says – “Trance encloses us in a virtual reality of thoughts and emotionally charged stories. We are at the mercy of unconscious beliefs\, feelings\, and memories that drive our decisions and reactions to life. We feel separate or alone\, threatened\, and/or incomplete.”  Mindfulness is a path out of our trance into our natural presence. We find enough-ness in the simple things – soaking in the sun on our skin\, feeling connected with a loved one\, taking in the beauty of a tree or a flower\, enjoying a meal\, etc. We shift out of stress into the experience of rest and ease in our bodies. We are no longer in fight\, flight\, freeze\, fawn responses.   \nIn this daylong\, we will explore mindfulness practices that help us wake up to our everyday trance and move into our natural presence. We will bring our attention to our bodies\, emotions\, and thoughts. We will create a non-judgemental\, collective field that supports our individual process. The day will be a combination of instruction\, discussion\, practice\, and integration. Everyone is welcome. No prior experience necessary. \nat Diamond Light Meditation Center\n2791 24th Street\, Room 14 (upstairs)\nSacramento CA 95818\nADA accessible\, parking lot in back \nCost: $40-$60\, no one turned away for lack of funds\, email diamondlight.sac@gmail.com about scholarships \nTo register: https://bookwhen.com/diamondlightsac#focus=ev-s2p8-20200425093000 \nAbout the instructor: Sunil Joseph has been a student of NVC since 2004.

SUMMARY:Online: Healing Meditation: Tong-Len with Ryan Caputi
DESCRIPTION:Tuesdays March 31-April 14th 6:30-8:30pm  \nThere are many different kinds of meditation available.

Sadness\, grief\, anger\, jealousy\, resentment\, fear\, unhealthy lust\, and even physical problems can be transformed through this inner alchemy.  \nIn these classes\, you will learn an ancient healing meditation that has been passed down from the time of the Buddha. The meditation itself utilizes aspects of the psyche that relate to our creative nature in the form of active imagination\, visualizations\, and lucid day-dreaming. At its core\, this meditation will teach you how to develop and cultivate your capacity for Love and Compassion. It is thru the development of Love and Compassion that deep healing can happen spontaneously. \nCost: Suggested Donation $10-$20 per class\, no one turned away for lack of funds.

SUMMARY:Online: Healing Meditation: Tong-Len with Ryan Caputi
DESCRIPTION:Tuesdays March 31-April 14th 6:30-8:30pm  \nThere are many different kinds of meditation available. Some of the most potent forms have the capability to deeply transform and heal wounds that you may be carrying. Sadness\, grief\, anger\, jealousy\, resentment\, fear\, unhealthy lust\, and even physical problems can be transformed through this inner alchemy.  \nIn these classes\, you will learn an ancient healing meditation that has been passed down from the time of the Buddha. The meditation itself utilizes aspects of the psyche that relate to our creative nature in the form of active imagination\, visualizations\, and lucid day-dreaming. At its core\, this meditation will teach you how to develop and cultivate your capacity for Love and Compassion. It is thru the development of Love and Compassion that deep healing can happen spontaneously. \nCost: Suggested Donation $10-$20 per class\, no one turned away for lack of funds.
