Divine Posture Workshop
2024-03-02 09:00 - 16:00 (America/Detroit) | Villa Maria Spiritual and Education Center, PA, United States
Divine posture is the bedrock of meditative living. It is the foundation on which all other seated meditation rests and has profound impacts on our well-being. The true power of meditation is in its capacity to erode barriers between our physical body and spiritual heart/mind, so this program serves as an exercise that includes our entire being. During this in-person practice, you will discover:

Why posture matters
A posture that enables you to be receptive to entering meditative states
The mind’s response/reaction to physical stillness
The benefit of accepting discomfort
Several meditation techniques, and
Skills that provide a solid foundation for spiritual growth

This event is sponsored and organized by the Villa Maria Education and Spirituality Center, a sponsored ministry of the Sisters of the Humility of Mary, and is appropriate for ALL, from absolute beginners to season meditators, or even aspiring teachers.
Workshop will be held on Saturday, March 2nd, from 9am to 4pm ET, in-person at Villa Maria Education and Spirituality Center in Villa Maria, PA.

Jhanic Adept
2024-01-07 16:00 - 17:30 (America/Detroit) | OH
The practice of jhana is said to have ultimately led to the Buddha’s awakening. While the system pre-dates Siddhartha Gautama, he is credited with adding sati (mindfulness) to jhanas and thoroughly investigating the experience. He is also said to have identified the 8th jhana, its associated experience of cessation, and resulting insight, paving the way for a new religious movement. Jhana is a rigorous and demanding method that radically transforms our lives. The Jhanic Adept intensive training period and community support “regular” people in taking up the practices necessary to master it.

Holiday Gathering
2023-12-03 13:00 - 14:30 (America/Halifax) | OH
The Holiday Season is upon us. Lately, it seems like just about everyone I talk to has mixed feelings about this time of year. No matter how we feel about them, we can all agree that it’s a lot – and it’s a beautiful time of year to slow down, reflect, and connect.
YourTurn would like to invite you to do just that with us on Sunday, December 3rd, from 1:00 – 2:30 PM Eastern time. During this 90-minutes we will:

Open space for solidarity and community.
Practice a guided meditation on receiving life. (More below)
Break-out into small groups to share our holiday plans and receive support if necessary.
Close with group connection to support us on our way.

The Gift of Receiving
Learning to experience life as a recipient instead of a taker is at the core of wisdom traditions worldwide. Flipping our perspective on its head, from taking to receiving, opens us up to the richness of life. Isn’t this what the holiday season is truly about? So, let’s open up to receiving the ease, stress, joy, and distress. It may be mind-bending at first, and that’s why Dan will lead us in practice and Q&A to really wrap our heads around what it means to receive the mystery of life.
If you want to join this call, please RSVP using the form below. You will be sent the Zoom information before the event.

Know & Flow: Weekend Workshop
2023-11-10 - 2023-11-12 | OH
Join us for a weekend workshop in person! This November, we will gather in California (Bay Area) for an immersive retreat with unstructured time in the evening. We will stay immersed in daily life while we explore the nature of reality and the laws of cause and effect. On Friday we will dine together in open discussion on the principles of knowledge. On Saturday we will practice meditation together to directly experience new ways of knowing at the San Francisco Buddhist Center. On Sunday, we will integrate our knowledge and experience to begin transforming a target area of our life at Crane Cove Park by the bay.

This workshop will rely on collaborative contemplation– the integration of insight through articulation, discussion and meditative practices. Cultivating a healthy understanding of reality enables more natural flow of energy and skillful decision-making. Powering our practice with the support of a group focusing on a common purpose helps facilitate personal realization. Our discussions and practices will be mostly open-ended, organic, and informed by what arises through our practice at the time, supported by Dan’s experience and training methods.
We invite participants to take an empowered approach to transforming their own karma through intentional mindfulness practice. Through meditative awareness and conscious action, we can use the laws of cause and effect to our advantage by making more skillful choices that sow the seeds of positive karma. Making these kinds of intentional changes to our behavior brings more spiritual power to our lives, enhanced wellbeing, and greater ability to build healthy relationships with others and oneself.
Participants will be invited to choose one area/aspect of their lives to focus their mindfulness efforts on going forward to experiment with applying meditative principles, and consciously observe how this shift in perspective can make measurable changes. Seeing our own ability to apply this insight builds a heightened sense of personal empowerment over time, and builds momentum for ongoing practice.
Workshop cost includes the following meals (no lodging):
-Friday Dinner
-Saturday Breakfast and Lunch (free time after 6, open invitation to dine together)
-Sunday Breakfast and light lunch.
