There is no question that we have been experiencing a pivotal, paradigm-shifting time for the world,
and collectively we will be experiencing its ripple effects for years to come. The collective grief and
anxiety of a global pandemic and the impacts of pre-existing conditions such as racism and
systemic oppression cannot be underestimated. We have been continually called in and challenged
to be in deep and radical relationship to the nature of impermanence. To meet this call, we must
lean into practices that can support our moment-to-moment experience. In this experiential
workshop you will learn the fundamentals of mindfulness meditation and how to work with whatever
arises within your internal experience and to meet the moment with more ease and spaciousness.

Date: September 27, 2021 (Monday)
Time: 12noon-1:30pm EST via Zoom
Facilitators: Helen Park, LCSW, MFA & Shiyun Chen
