SUMMARY:Mary Stancavage - Finding Ease in the Present Moment -
DESCRIPTION:Finding ease in the present moment can sometimes feel like an impossible task – there is so much going on in the world and in our own lives and it’s easy to become overwhelmed. When things are challenging\, we tend to fall into familiar patterns of reactivity which keep us either stuck in this overwhelm or getting lost in stories that don’t serve us. In this talk Mary will discuss different ways we get entangled and how we can get unstuck and move towards both equanimity and ease\, regardless of what’s going on. \n\nmarystancavage.org\nSeven Factors of Awakening\n\n

SUMMARY:Bringing the New Year in with Wisdom
DESCRIPTION:Every day is a new year\, and it’s an opportunity to do something different because the past has gone . However so many of us hold onto the past or cling onto a future that hasn’t even arrived. Today we will explore letting go and discovering a freedom in the present moment. Let’s leave behind our addictive and compulsive behaviors and face the reality of now!

SUMMARY:Topic: My Journey Into Recovery and Dharma
DESCRIPTION:Since this is my first time speaking at the BRN Academy\, I thought I would share some stories about my personal journey with you. I’ve been in recovery from drugs and alcohol since 1987\, and there have been plenty of ups and downs along the way. Finding the practice of insight meditation and the Buddha’s path of liberation gave me a new sense of possibility in my life after years of being clean and sober in 12 step meetings.\n \nI finally learned how to be more self-reliant. As the Buddha instructed in one sutta: “Dwell with yourselves as your own island\, with yourselves as your own refuge\, with no other refuge; dwell with the Dhamma as your island\, with the Dhamma as your refuge\, with no other refuge…” Of course\, Sangha (community)  is vitally important\, too.
