SUMMARY:Sunday Open House Meditation Gathering (In-person)
DESCRIPTION:Sunday Open House Meditation Gathering\n\nLed by Gene Bobker\, Charles Olson\, and WMC staff\nSundays from 10 am – 12 pm ET\nDrop-ins welcome!\n\nOn Sunday mornings\, the Westchester Meditation Center is hosting community gatherings involving meditation practice\, discussion\, and readings from The Wisdom of No Escape\, and the Path of Loving-Kindness by Pema Chodron. \nWhen life’s events challenge us\, we search for ways to change or improve our circumstances. Yet we find difficult life events occur over and over again\, bringing the same feelings and frustrations. Meditation helps us discover that while we will never be able to completely control our world\, we can train our minds to meet and accept life just as it is\, in the present moment. \nPema Chodron’s book is about welcoming life in all its manifestations—embracing the joy\, suffering\, wisdom and confusion that is the human experience. Meditation guides us to meet our mind\, embrace the fullness of our experience\, and live a wholehearted life. \nAt each gathering\, you will practice for two sessions with walking meditation in between\, share an inspiring reading\, and have a group discussion. \n\nMeditation instruction (for those that are brand new to meditation or need a refresher) is available\, if needed.\nCost of attendance is by donation. Recommended donation is $10 per meeting\nListen to past Sunday Dharma Talks here. Check out our guest speakers here.

SUMMARY:Qigong with Robert Peng (In-person)
DESCRIPTION:Robert Peng\, a world-renowned Qigong Master and healer\, was born and raised in Hunan\, China. \nAt age eight\, he began an intensive apprenticeship under the close guidance of the legendary monk Xiao Yao\, an enlightened master known for his profound healing ability and martial arts skill. At age 15\, Robert endured a 100-day water fast in a small dark room at a secluded monastery in the remote mountains of Hunan province\, which initiated a radical spiritual transformation and awakened amazing healing powers. \nAfter pursuing his training quietly while attending university in Changsha\, he began to teach publicly at 29\, and within five years had trained over 150\,000 students all over China\, Australia\, and the U.S. \nWith his deep understanding and practice of Qigong\, and with extensive life and teaching experience in the Western world\, Robert has developed a unique way to teach Qigong that people from different cultures can easily understand and follow while enjoying the real essence of this ancient Chinese healing art of wisdom\, love\, and vitality. \nThis is an in-person event. \nCost: $69.99 \nRegister: Here

SUMMARY:Sunday Open House Meditation Gathering (In-person)
DESCRIPTION:Sunday Open House Meditation Gathering\n\nLed by Gene Bobker\, Charles Olson\, and WMC staff\nSundays from 10 am – 12 pm ET\nDrop-ins welcome!\n\nOn Sunday mornings\, the Westchester Meditation Center is hosting community gatherings involving meditation practice\, discussion\, and readings from The Wisdom of No Escape\, and the Path of Loving-Kindness by Pema Chodron. \nWhen life’s events challenge us\, we search for ways to change or improve our circumstances. Yet we find difficult life events occur over and over again\, bringing the same feelings and frustrations. Meditation helps us discover that while we will never be able to completely control our world\, we can train our minds to meet and accept life just as it is\, in the present moment. \nPema Chodron’s book is about welcoming life in all its manifestations—embracing the joy\, suffering\, wisdom and confusion that is the human experience. Meditation guides us to meet our mind\, embrace the fullness of our experience\, and live a wholehearted life. \nAt each gathering\, you will practice for two sessions with walking meditation in between\, share an inspiring reading\, and have a group discussion. \n\nMeditation instruction (for those that are brand new to meditation or need a refresher) is available\, if needed.\nCost of attendance is by donation. Recommended donation is $10 per meeting\nListen to past Sunday Dharma Talks here. Check out our guest speakers here.

SUMMARY:The Gift of Spiritual Abundance with Jeff Carreira
DESCRIPTION:On this full day retreat you will learn to live according to a new operating system that will transform your life. \nAs a teacher of meditation and spiritual awakening\, Jeff Carreira is often focused on inner transformation\, and after people experience awakening the one question they ask him more than any other is: “How do I live this in my daily life?” \nThis retreat will answer that question. The primary exploration will be about shifting into a life of ongoing fullness\, and satisfaction. This might sound impossible\, but it’s not\, if you learn the secret. You can’t always get what you want\, but you can learn to be satisfied with what you get. \nLiving in abundance is an awakened mindset based on a deep recognition of the inherent wonder of being alive. When you discover the source of inner wholeness you will live in a completely different way. \nOn this retreat you will learn how to live in spiritual abundance so that life unfolds miraculously\, becoming easier and more fulfilling all the time. \nThat doesn’t mean you don’t work hard\, experience pain\, or face adversity. And it doesn’t mean that you never experience fear\, doubt or self-concern. What it means is that you never forget\, even under the most challenging circumstances\, that life is good and as long as you travel the path of your heart it will get better. \nOver the course of the day\, you will receive specific guidance that will shift your perspective out of fear and scarcity\, and into trust and abundance. You will also engage in practices that allow you to experience the energy of fullness\, and contemplations that help you uncover the attitudes\, beliefs\, and expectations that perpetuate unnecessary struggle. \nThis is the first retreat of this type that Jeff has ever offered. We look forward to seeing you there. \nRegister HERE.
