Wednesday evenings, June 2, 9, 16, 23 and 30, 7pm to 8:30pm
In June we will continue our 2021 theme of Healing Communication with a series of talks and interviews with members of the Sangha, looking at the ways they are weaving meaningful communication into their lives and their work.
With Pete, Mokshasi, Nanasiri, Viradhamma, Alexi, Michaela and possibly more.
In this series we will "start just where we are", which includes appreciating what each of us is already doing to bring about positive change for ourselves and others in this complex world, and how this can lay a skillful foundation for actions we take. We will hear from members of the Sangha who are being parents for the first time; from people working with underserved communities here and in India; and from psychoanalysts, social workers and people who have learned to listen.
We hope you'll come and join the conversation with your own reflections on weaving together what you do and what you value.
