SUMMARY:Eight Cycles: Harmony Qigong to Flow Like Water
DESCRIPTION:When we experience chronic stress the body tightens and blockages form. These obstructions reduce the amount of Qi flow. The fresh mountain stream becomes a series of stagnant ponds of murky Qi. The internal organs are deprived of vitality and they weaken. Symptoms appear and eventually diseases form. In this class\, we’ll use gentle Qigong movement to chip away at the blockages and reinvigorate the flow of Qi energy. As the obstructions disappear symptoms go away and youthful vitality is regained. * The class will finish with a powerful group healing.  \nThis is an in-person event. \nCost: $69.99 \nRegister: Here

SUMMARY:Sunday Open House Meditation Gatherings
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday mornings the Westchester Meditation Center will host a community gathering involving meditation practice\, readings\, and discussion. The theme of this season of Open House is How to Meditate\, inspired by Pema Chodron’s book\, How to Meditate: A Practical Guide to Making Friends with Your Mind. \nWhy meditate? Let’s explore. \nWhen situations bother us we always feel we need to change the situation to improve our circumstances. But does that really work? How many situations must we change to achieve the level of comfort we aspire to? We will never fully be able to restrain external phenomena\, but we can restrain our minds. Indeed\, working with our mind is the only means through which we’ll actually find harmony and contentment with the world that we live in. \nMeditation provides a golden key to address this yearning. During our winter open house\, we will review chapter by chapter Pema Chodron’s book\, How to Meditation\, which provides a step-by-step guide to how we can meet and openly relate with 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 reading and have a group discussion. \nCost: Free – Donations Welcome \nMore Info: Here

SUMMARY:The Art of Spiritual Transformation (Workshop Two: The Art of Spiritual Breakthrough)
DESCRIPTION:The Art of Spiritual Transformation  \nIn January\, February and March of 2023 you are invited to join Jeff Carreira for three experiential explorations in the art of spiritual transformation. These workshops will be held live at The Aligned Center and there is also the option to attend virtually via Zoom Video Conferencing. Each workshop will include spiritual guidance and instruction\, practices and exercises\, as well as discussion and dialog. \nIn these workshops Jeff intends to share a comprehensive introduction to everything that he has found that allows a person to release themselves from negative tendencies and live a spiritually awakened life free from the constricting influence of fear. \nWorkshop Two: The Art of Spiritual Breakthrough \nIn the second workshop we will explore experiences that can bring you to new heights of realization. You will learn that there are two ways to open to the possibility of breakthrough. One is by engaging in practices that allow you to focus your attention and have the power to ignite a profound experience in consciousness. The other way involves using imaginative practices to shift your perspective into an awakened view on the experience you’re already having. In this workshop you will explore and practice both of these ways of inviting spiritual breakthroughs. \nThis is an in-person and online event. \nCost: $30 Online – $50 Per Workshop – $150 All Three Workshops \nRegister: Here

SUMMARY:The Art of Spiritual Transformation (Workshop Three: The Art of Soul Development)
DESCRIPTION:The Art of Spiritual Transformation  \nIn January\, February and March of 2023 you are invited to join Jeff Carreira for three experiential explorations in the art of spiritual transformation. These workshops will be held live at The Aligned Center and there is also the option to attend virtually via Zoom Video Conferencing. Each workshop will include spiritual guidance and instruction\, practices and exercises\, as well as discussion and dialog. \nIn these workshops Jeff intends to share a comprehensive introduction to everything that he has found that allows a person to release themselves from negative tendencies and live a spiritually awakened life free from the constricting influence of fear. \nWorkshop Three: The Art of Soul Development \nIn the final workshop we will explore the process of spiritual growth that allows your soul to develop toward greater wisdom and compassion. We will start by defining the soul as our capacity to rest in the open and free space of spiritual surrender. When we transcend existential fears we are effortlessly able to relax and give up the need to control the circumstances around us. Because we have learned to trust life\, we now live in flow with higher creative powers. In this workshop you will engage in practices that develop your capacity for spiritual surrender and effortless living. \nThis is an in-person and online event. \nCost: $30 Online – $50 Per Workshop – $150 All Three Workshops \nRegister: Here

SUMMARY:Qigong Ecstasy and Group Healing
DESCRIPTION:Qigong Ecstasy is a potent practice for cultivating unconditional joy and bringing forth an inner wellspring to fill your body and spirit with radiant vitality and enthusiasm for life. The practice gently activates the three Dantians\, the major energy centers of the body\, dissolving stagnant energy that impedes the flow of life-giving Qi. Through practice\, you awaken within you “a gurgling spring of fresh energy that streams into all your activities.” In this class we focus on practicing Qigong Ecstasy to enjoy our peace and tranquility at present.\n \nThis is an in-person event. \nCost: $69.99 \nRegister: Here

SUMMARY:Sunday Open House Meditation Gatherings
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday mornings the Westchester Meditation Center will host a community gathering involving meditation practice\, readings\, and discussion. The theme of this season of Open House is How to Meditate\, inspired by Pema Chodron’s book\, How to Meditate: A Practical Guide to Making Friends with Your Mind. \nWhy meditate? Let’s explore. \nWhen situations bother us we always feel we need to change the situation to improve our circumstances. But does that really work? How many situations must we change to achieve the level of comfort we aspire to? We will never fully be able to restrain external phenomena\, but we can restrain our minds. Indeed\, working with our mind is the only means through which we’ll actually find harmony and contentment with the world that we live in. \nMeditation provides a golden key to address this yearning. During our winter open house\, we will review chapter by chapter Pema Chodron’s book\, How to Meditation\, which provides a step-by-step guide to how we can meet and openly relate with 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 reading and have a group discussion. \nCost: Free – Donations Welcome \nMore Info: Here
