SUMMARY:Letting Go of Fear and Judgement in a World Gone Mad
DESCRIPTION:Our culture is experiencing a breakdown of civility because of heightened fear. Dualistic\, in-group/out-group thinking is tearing our society apart.  We are faced with necessary but difficult conversations about racism and sexism. In order to navigate this cultural moment\, we need people who are spiritually evolved and able to keep their hearts open and supple in the midst of fear and violence.  This class will look at spiritual practices that can help us live in love with the world\, regardless of the craziness and cruelty around us. \nYou will leave with a better understanding of how fear and judgement function in our lives and be empowered to live with less fear and more open to everyone\, particularly those who we see as different from ourselves\, or even threatening.    \nTuesdays 6:30p-8:30p\nNov 29\, Dec 6\, Dec 13\nDonations Welcomed \nThis class is appropriate for all levels. \nBrian Baker is an Episcopal Priest and the Dean of Trinity Cathedral in Sacramento. He began meditating long before he ever entered a church. He has a long history of teaching with Tibetan Buddhists. In 2005 he organized and facilitated a conversation between the Dalai Lama and religious leaders in Idaho. He is a popular speaker at wellness and yoga festivals.

SUMMARY:Recipe for Happiness: A Spiritual Life Day by Day
DESCRIPTION:Many people think of those having a spiritual life living away from the modern world\, entrenched in solitude and study.

Yoga is what led her to Buddhism\, with her first class taught by Lama Marut in 2008. She has studied with many amazing teachers over the years\, her closest teacher being Amie Diller. Heather’s passion is the Tibetan Gelugpa tradition\, in the lineage of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. She recently finished a six year\, eighteen course intensive and is excited to share these classes with others.  \nHeather grew up in Northern California and received her Bachelor of the Arts in Communication at San Diego State University.
