Description: THIS IS THE REGISTRATION PAGE FOR THE SUNDAY EVENT. PLEASE NOTE THE SATURDAY EVENT IS A SEPARATE REGISTRATION.

Equanimity is a spacious stillness of mind that allows us to be with things as they simply are. It does not imply indifference, however.

Rather, when equanimity is present, it is the ground out of which sustained transformation can occur. It is also the foundation for the boundless arising of other qualities of the mind and heart, such as lovingkindness and compassion. Through guided meditations, talks and Q&A periods, this workshop will explore the practice of equanimity.

Suitable for new and experienced meditators alike.
