Visit here for more info &amp; registration.Visit the above links if you want to join any of the other workshops!___________________________________________________Nautral MindfulnessIn this workshop, we'll explore how to access and abide in the natural mindful presence that's always here.  Sometimes called open awareness, it's a mode where we put aside the doing and efforting and just rest.After getting a feel for what this mode is like, and how it differs from "open monitoring," we'll take on the biggest challenge: just spacing out in thought the whole time, while believing ourselves to be meditating.We'll also give some attention to how this is an incredible method to take into our daily life, as it doesn't require stillness, focus, or concentration.  We can literally touch into it during any activity, whether that's reading, talking, computer working, or doing jumping jacks while hoola hooping!The workshop will feature a dynamic blend of lecture, community discussion, and guided meditations. Attendance will be capped at 22 people.COST:Offered on the gift economy (aka, on donation).Please note that offered on donation does not mean "low value" or "only sign up because no payment is required." This event will likely fill up. Please only join if you genuinely intend to come.If you'd like to learn more about how and why I support myself 99% on community donations, please read *Note: Eventbrite may now require a minimum $1 donation.
