In this 4-session workshop, you will learn how to use the ancient techniques of insight meditation to recognize, investigate, and untangle patriarchy as it manifests in your lived, embodied experience. Expect periods of formal meditation practice, didactic teachings, group dialogue, and ritual to deepen your self-awareness around how patriarchy moves in your life and how to begin healing some of the harm it creates. In doing this work, we not only support our own mental and emotional wellness, but also the wellness of all those around us. Together, we will create a safe and intentional space in which to cultivate courage and radical vulnerability, and demonstrate that some of the deepest work we can do is that which we do in community. This workshop is specifically for those who are masculine-identified; straight, queer, cis, trans, and gender-expansive participants are welcome! $300 for 4 sessions Limited sliding scale spots are available. If you are able to pay the full fee, please do so to ensure sliding scale spots are reserved for those in greatest need. https://www.samcooperis.com/events/untangling-the-patriarchy-within-fak7w-ye94f monthly 0.5 2022-06-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628ea03192f4540ffa10cb44/69232084-2f10-4320-ad72-2c3ac29ad176/Untangling+patriarchy.jpg Classes, Gatherings, Events - Untangling the Patriarchy Within (Session 3) - JOIN US: weareharmonyholistic.com/patriarchygroup This meditation-based experience will explore and unwind social conditioning associated with masculinity, and aims to empower participants in liberation from unconscious cycles of harm that they may not condone, nor wish to participate in.

But so often inspiration can seem inaccessible, locked away behind walls of self-judgment, lost in the turbulence of our busy minds, overwhelmed by the demands of an increasingly hectic worldspace. Meditation practice—which helps us drop into the abundance and clarity available in the present moment—can be a great tool for getting out of our own patterns of self-limitation so that inspiration can flow unimpeded and the inherent creative energy inside each one of us can manifest itself fully! Join artist-instructor and meditation teacher Sam Cooper for a half-day workshop that will utilize periods of walking meditation in the beautiful gardens of Alden Farms to spark inspiration and open-ended creation! Bring your own preferred art materials (Riverworks has some materials available if you do not have your own) , an open mind, and a belief in your innate creative powers. Appropriate for all meditation and art experience levels. https://www.samcooperis.com/home daily 1.0 2025-05-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628ea03192f4540ffa10cb44/7dfda1e8-d18d-4b7f-aa65-e8584caf17aa/Resized_20240607_163323.jpeg Home Perhaps you are here because you have met or heard about this person.
