Meditation and Accomplishment (Jan 11-Feb 20 )

Series runs January 11- February 20, 2021

The beginning of the year is often a time of shedding the old and developing the new. However, we don’t always have the tools or the support to do so effectively.

This 6-week series is designed to help people who want to align their inner and outer lives in support of accomplishing their personal and professional goals. 

As humans we desire. Some desires coalesce into goals. When circumstance, skill, and effort align, our goals are realized. 

For millennia, practices from Taoism, Buddhism, Yoga, Sufism, Judaism, Christianity, and myriad other traditions have helped sincere seekers accomplish their inner and outer goals. 

In the 21st century, tools of meditation routinely support athletes, entrepreneurs, artists, managers, leaders, philosophers, scientists, and activists among many others to achieve a wide range of aims. 

Meditative practice can help us clarify our deepest purpose, cultivate ways of being and doing that align with our ideals, and strengthen us to stay focused as we move toward our considered goals.

Our practice will draw upon insights and techniques from traditional contemplative disciplines and evidence-based research in meditation, psychology, and neuroscience.

This 6-week series will explore the following topics: 

• Foundations of concentration 

• Clarifying our desires and goals 

• Identifying and cultivating desired ways  of being and doing
