SUMMARY:Meditating during Uncertain Times
DESCRIPTION:With the American election coming up\, and the spike in COVID cases around the world\, it is inevitable that many people may be experiencing PTSD\, panic attacks\, worry and concern. Many people ask how can meditation help when all you are doing is sitting on the cushion? Don’t we have to get up\, go outside and act? Yes we do. What we do off the cushions we bring onto the meditation cushion\, and what we do on the meditation cushion we take back into the world. So come and join the President of BRN and explore meditation through a trauma informed lens\, and surrender to some healing. \nAward-winning author of 8 books\, Valerie (Vimalasara) Mason-John is the co-founder of Mindfulness-Based Addiction Recovery MBAR\, a secular recovery 8-week program\, and the co-author and co-founder of Eight Step Recovery Using The Buddha’s Teachings to Overcome Addiction. She was the co-founder of Healing and Insight a teaching faculty embracing Buddhist Recovery in all its guises. She is now responsible for programming Buddhist Recovery Retreats at the Menla Retreat Centre in Upstate New York. Chair of Vancouver Buddhist Centre\, she is a senior member of the Triratna Buddhist Order\, and tours internationally as a public speaker and trainer in the field of addictions and emotional trauma.Website: www.valeriemason-john.com
