Gratefulness is not simply a response to life’s blessings. It is a cultivated attitude of heart and mind, a natural expression of generosity, a way that we share love and joy. Gratefulness fosters a spirit of belonging and nourishes positive social and cultural change. In this special program, Frank and Roshi explore the power and gift of gratefulness through teachings, meditation, and exploration with our community.
Led by Vinny Ferraro, with Frank Ostaseski and Pam Dunn
This year-long program, based on the book A Year to Live by Stephen Levine, is designed for people of all ages and life stages. In community, we will focus on waking up and living life more fully through the exploration of death as spiritual practice. Join us!
Life awakens us to continuous opportunities for service. In this series we will explore how service is a natural expression of our humanity. We will reflect on the meaning and place of service in our personal and professional lives. Through mediation, inquiry, and group discussion we will discover the true heart of service and the shadows that obscure it. We will investigate the call to service and the common roadblocks of roles, isolation, perfectionism, and the ways we distance ourselves from suffering that hinder our capacity to fully express our compassion. This series is open to all but may be of particular value for healthcare professionals and other caregivers. Join us!
