Meditation Series: Day-to-Day Dharma

The teachings of Buddhism, known as the Dharma, are meant to be simple, vibrant, and easily implemented instructions for life. The Buddha's teachings were made available to all, and he taught that alleviating suffering and enlightenment was attainable for all. 

So why does Buddhism often feel so esoteric? Consider the centuries after Buddha's living example, where these teachings are written down, studied, discoursed over, rewritten, translated by scholars, and studied academically. What we are often left with is a stuffy old text that seems unrelatable. 

This series aims to breathe life back into the Dharma that creates a framework for more ease, connection, and mindfulness in the day-to-day. Each session will cover a bit of history for context, illuminate key teachings of Buddhism, offer a simple meditation technique, and explore how we can integrate the teachings and meditation into daily life. The sessions do not need to be taken as a series but will build on one another for those that would like to attend all sequentially.

Four Noble Truths

The anchor of the entire tradition, these teachings are instructions on how to alleviate suffering. Sounds good, right? So what is stopping us? We'll explore how to not just know these four steps, but how to bring them alive, how we might understand them personally, interpersonally, socially, politically, and globally.
