Exploring Truth - Women’s Spiritual Wellness Group
If you enjoy thought-provoking readings related to spirituality, are interested in authentic dialogue, establishing a spiritual practice, and learning strategies to quiet your mind, then this six-week discussion group may be for you. It will include a consolidation of immediately applicable ideas from Buddhism, neuroscience and western psychotherapy. All discussions will promote tolerance, responsibility and interfaith understanding. Topics may include: differences between Eastern and Western spirituality; research behind benefits of mindfulness meditation; practical strategies of Buddhist principles; brain chemistry and spiritual experience; what your difficult people can teach you; choosing peace over conflict; the pursuit of happiness. Articles from a wide range of sources will be provided and used as a catalyst for discussion. Materials by Pema Chodron, Sylvia Boorstein, Ram Dass, Sharon Salzberg, Thich Nhat Hanh and Jack Kornfield may be used in this discussion group.
