SUMMARY:Start Here Now - Talk and Book Signing
DESCRIPTION:  \nIn this talk based on her new book\, Susan makes practical suggestions for how to start—and sustain—a meditation practice\, dispels the three most common misconceptions\, describes the obstacles we all face and how to overcome them\, and\, most important\, presents meditation as something much more than the latest “life hack” to success but as a path to wisdom and compassion.

SUMMARY:Start Here Now: A Guide to the Path and Practice of Meditation
DESCRIPTION:By now\, everybody has heard that mindfulness meditation is good for you. It has been proven to do everything from helping you get a good night’s sleep to liberating you from suffering. There are countless books\, apps\, recordings\, and videos that teach you how to meditate\, and if you’ve ever tried to learn meditation from one of them\, chances are you enjoyed the practice while you were doing it\, swore to do it every day for the rest of your life\, and then gave up after a few days with the thought\, “This is not for me. It is too hard/boring/confusing and I’m just not sure if I’m doing it right.” \nIn this program\, you will learn how to create a truly sustainable meditation practice\, one that you can count on to be a source of stability\, peace\, and relaxation for the rest of your life. \nWriter and Buddhist teacher Susan Piver has been practicing for 20 years and teaching meditation for 10 years. She teaches workshops and speaks all over the world on meditation\, spirituality\, communication styles\, relationships and creativity. She wrote the relationships column for “Body & Soul” magazine\, is a contributor to DrWeil.com\, and a frequent guest on network television\, including The Oprah Winfrey Show\, Today\, CNN\, and The Tyra Banks Show. Her work has been featured in the New York Times\, the Wall Street Journal\, TIME\, and others. \nFor hours and more information\, please click on the link below.

SUMMARY:The Enneagram
DESCRIPTION:The enneagram\, a model of human personality\, is a great passion of mine. I have used it consistently in every area of my life for close to 20 years. It helps me figure out how to communicate with students so that they can actually hear me. It helps me to understand my husband in order to focus on our strengths as partners and minimize our weaknesses. It has helped me understand and soften toward myself. \nWe all have blind spots. The enneagram hands you a diagram of your own and others’. If you are willing to be brave\, it gives you the opportunity to actually see the beliefs and patterns that you hold out of fear and self-protection. If you are willing to be even braver\, it points the way to releasing them. If you are willing to braver still\, it can guide you to releasing others from your expectations about who you think they should be and instead embrace who they are. \nIn other words\, it is a compassion tool of the highest order. Deep\, broad\, complex\, and subtle\, the enneagram can teach you many things\, from how to talk to a colleague about a new project to how to release yourself from the expectations of others and live authentically. It stops you from interpreting the actions of others through your own filters and thus enables you to know them rather than simply reacquainting yourself with yourself. It can help you avoid arguments in favor of connection. It enables you to see through others’ defenses to know them more genuinely. It enables you to see through your own defenses. \nIt both softens and sharpens you in all relationships—from the one you have with yourself to the one you have with the world. \nPlease join me for a four part E-Course to explore this rich\, powerful\, and mind-altering system.\n\nSchedule\nClass One\nIntroduction to the enneagram\nUses and abuses of the system\nThe Hornevian directional theory\nThree triads/centers of intelligence:\nThe intuitive triad\nThe heart triad\nThe mental triad \nClass Two\nThree instinctual drives\nDetailed overview of the intuitive triad: types and subtypes \nClass Three\nDetailed overview of the heart triad: types and subtypes\nDetailed overview of the mental triad: types and subtypes \nClass Four\nWhat is your type?\nWays of working with the system going forward \nThis program is the full extent of what was offered during the live experience. All videos include the real-time q&a with the live participants as their questions and comments are likely to be shared by others. (As this is a self-paced program however\, there will be no opportunity to ask new questions.) Course materials will be available for 60 days from your date of registration. \nYou may or you may not be certain of your type once this eCourse is completed. It can take time to figure it out but this program will give you the foundation for doing so. \nIf you have any questions\, please email Michele. \nFinally\, let me just tell you that I use the enneagram every single day of my life. Next to the Buddhadharma\, it is the primary beacon that lights my way to connect with myself and others in a way that is honest and thoughtful. \n

SUMMARY:Start Here Now: An Open-Hearted Guide to the Path and Practice of Meditation
DESCRIPTION:By now\, everybody has heard that mindfulness meditation is good for you. It has been proven to do everything from helping you get a good night’s sleep to liberating you from suffering. There are countless books\, apps\, recordings\, and videos that teach you how to meditate\, and if you’ve ever tried to learn meditation from one of them\, chances are you enjoyed the practice while you were doing it\, swore to do it every day for the rest of your life\, and then gave up after a few days with the thought\, “This is not for me. It is too hard/boring/confusing and I’m just not sure if I’m doing it right.” \nIn this program\, you will learn how to create a truly sustainable meditation practice\, one that you can count on to be a source of stability\, peace\, and relaxation for the rest of your life. \nWriter and Buddhist teacher Susan Piver has been practicing for 20 years and teaching meditation for 10 years. She teaches workshops and speaks all over the world on meditation\, spirituality\, communication styles\, relationships and creativity. She wrote the relationships column for “Body & Soul” magazine\, is a contributor to DrWeil.com\, and a frequent guest on network television\, including The Oprah Winfrey Show\, Today\, CNN\, and The Tyra Banks Show. Her work has been featured in the New York Times\, the Wall Street Journal\, TIME\, and others. \nFor hours and more information\, please click on the event link below.

SUMMARY:Sangha Book Club
DESCRIPTION:For the Open Heart Project Sangha‘s 3rd book club of 2015\, author Tulku Thondup will join us on September 30th to discuss his book “The Heart of Unconditional Love“.  The unconditional love that we all long for can be experienced in the practice of loving-kindness. In this popular form of meditation\, the love inherent to our own nature is gradually expanded until it embraces infinite beings. Tulku Thondup introduces a new four-stage format for this practice\, rooted in the traditional teachings of Tibetan Buddhism. \nAn email will be send to all Sangha members the day before with the link\, and instructions\, for joining this Sangha event.
