Awakening our Heart of Compassion
When: Sunday, April 5 @ 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM PDT
T.S. Eliot said that genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. Like mindfulness, poetry takes us off autopilot and connects us deeply and directly with our life. In this experiential session, we aim to allow our hearts to open to our vast inner landscape so that they may be refreshed, softened and uplifted. Together, mindfulness and poetry offer a unique space for peace, compassion and insight - and help to remind us who we are.
In this session we'll take time to come home to ourselves and create space to 'bathe' in a selection of poems that can awaken our compassion, connect us deeply and remind us of our goodness.
