 Saturday, October 15, 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

 

Designed  exclusively  for  parents  of  all  ages,  this  one-­‐‑day  program  includes  meditation  instruction,  talks  on  the   Shambhala  Buddhist  teachings  with  an  emphasis  on  parenting  issues,  group  discussions,  and  a  celebratory   reception.  The  directors,  Shastri  Charlene  Leung  and  Robert  Pressnall,  are  parents  and  senior  Shambhala   meditation  instructors.  Shambhala  Training  Level  I  participants  are  introduced  to  basic  human  goodness   through  the  practice  of  mindfulness-­‐‑awareness  meditation.  This  simple  yet  profound  meditation  technique  can   benefit  anyone  from  any  background  and  is  appropriate  for  beginning  and  experienced  meditators.  Tuition  is   $100,  $75  (full-­‐‑time  students),  and  $25  (repeating  students).  Scholarships  are  available.

We are not providing childcare, but it is hoped that parents of younger children would only need to find a baby sitter for the one day and could attend together so that each would benefit.   

For  more  information,  to  reserve  your  space  for  the  program,  or  to  request  a  scholarship,  please  visit  www.sonoma.shambhala.org  (click  on  “Programs”  then    “Shambhala  Training  Level  1  for  Parents”),  or  send  a   message  to  Rachel  Anderson  at  satellitepubs1@comcast.net.
