8-week Series
8:00am CT (60 minutes), Thursdays, 9 April – 28 May, 2020
An 8-Week Series with Karuna; the third in her Living Beautifully year-long exploration with Pema Chödrön. No need to have attended the prior modules -- you're welcome to register for individual modules or the entire year-long series.
Each class will be an invitation to recharge your battery, recommit to living beautifully, and reset your intention for the week.
In this module, we will be leaning on Pema Chödrön’s book, “Wisdom of No Escape.”
“Wholeheartedness is a precious gift, but no one can actually give it to you. You have to find the path that has heart and then walk it impeccably. In doing that, you again and again encounter your own uptightness, your own headaches, your own falling flat on your face…It humbles you. It opens your heart.” Pema Chodron
Using the three lenses of Precision, Gentleness, and the Practice of Letting Go, we will explore what it means to live with an open and courageous heart in a rough and tumble world.How can we use these three qualities to show up for ourselves and others in masterful and sometimes profound ways? Likewise, how can we use these three qualities to show up for ourselves and others in helpful and kind ways?
“This is the book that saved my life when I was on an extended meditation retreat. Every time I wanted to shut down or run away, I opened up this book to the most perfect sentence or two that gifted me the wisdom I needed exactly in that moment to remind me to stay with whatever was arising.” - Karuna
Leaning on the stellar instruction she has received from her teachers -- Hector Marcel, Kelly Lindsey, Denise Deniger, Michael Hewett, and Keith Kachtick, and Life Itself, Karuna designs her classes to create the type of reflection from which you can find a meaningful and enriching life.
Sassy, fun, and knowledgeable, class with Karuna is sure to inspire. You can expect to learn exactly what you need to create a joyful and curious life. Expect your paradigm to shift in playful and potent ways.
Karuna has studied Tibetan Buddhism extensively. She has taught and guided hundreds of hours of meditation sessions. It is her greatest desire that all beings be happy and free.
When she isn't guiding meditation, working on writing a book, teaching a Dharma class, or trail running, you will find Karuna hiking with her husband Joseph and two dogs, Ruby Rose and Stella Bean in the mountains of ColoRocky.
Remember if you miss a session - they're recorded
