Heartwidth Sangha
Every 3rd Sunday
1:00pm ET
For every race, gender, ethnicity, age, ability, and orientation.
Intention holder: Ayesha Ali
We can’t wait to be "better" to come together across differences. I believe the time calls for us to not be "right" together, but to build the capacity to be "wrong" together. I am holding space and sharing my understanding of the Dharma for all human beings (pets may attend). ALL ARE WELCOME. I hope to see you there.
Heartwidth is a sangha that creates a container of courage and grace that allows its members to be supported by a practice that connects past differences and begins the work of creating a “beloved community”.
Embody the Whole Self: Acceptance of the bodies we inhabit and the lineage and history of that body (accepting its pain and resilience). We also bring all of our feelings, joy, pain, confusion, etc...
Capacity: We are capable and willing to hold all that we are and have the capacity to be present to others' past differences and history. In support of the development to increase capacity, we will engage in various types of mindfulness practices.
Community: We are committed to developing a community that supports the development of relationships outside of the practice space.
