Meditations and Dharma teachings on Loving Our Shadows + Sound Bath

CO-SPONSORED BY TARA MANDALA AND DHARMA GATES

REGISTER HERE


February continues our winter theme of Transforming Obstacles into Helpers. Our upcoming Tibet House event features an intimate discussion on loving all parts of ourselves with Megan Mook, Kevin Townley, and Lopön Karla Jackson Brewer, followed by a guided Feeding Your Demons meditation with Lopön Karla Jackson Brewer and an immersive sound bath with George MacPherson. 

Feeding Your Demons is a highly effective meditation inspired by the Chöd practice and developed by Lama Tsultrim Allione. Through Feeding Your Demons, we’ll learn how to transform our inner obstacles (anger, anxiety, loneliness, etc.,) into friends and allies on the path.
