SUMMARY:Dharma of Writing Group
DESCRIPTION:So many of us say we want to write. When we write\, we come home to ourselves. We have ideas to explore\, stories to tell\, or songs to sing. Writing can illuminate\, clarify\, and heal. \nIn short\, writing is very powerful. Yet\, it is so difficult to begin! This is common and natural. \nThe Dharma of Writing is an ongoing two-hour online monthly gathering designed to help you enter your own writing with the support and companionship of other writers. It will be co-hosted by myself and Kate Lila Wheeler\, a novelist who is also an acclaimed Buddhist teacher. During the months that I host\, we will gather from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. ET and when Kate hosts\, it will be from 4:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. ET. (We will alternate months.) This will give people in various time zones a chance to participate. \nAt each session\, we will practice meditation together and then actually write. Each person will work on his or her own project with the quiet\, supportive companionship of writers all over the world. We will convene using the video conference platform\, Zoom. Sessions will be recorded and links sent to all\, so if you can’t join live you can still participate. \nThe schedule for each session is: \n\nGuided mindfulness practice: 15 minutes\nJournaling exercise (“free writing”): 15 minutes\nWriting period: 80 minutes\nCheck-in and close: 10 minutes\n\nNo work will be shared during the class\, but the group will have a private forum on our site for anyone who would like to post their writing. \nOpen to writers of fiction\, non-fiction\, poetry\, screenplays\, and song—and anyone who would simply like to explore writing as a practice. \nSubsequent sessions will take place as follows: \nFebruary 10   6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. (hosted by Susan)\nMarch 10   4:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. ET (hosted by Kate)\nApril 13   6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. (hosted by Susan)\nMay 11   4:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. ET (hosted by Kate)\nJune 11    6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. (hosted by Susan) \nThis program is for you if you are looking for some gentle accountability and dedicated time for your writing. \n\n\n\nThe cost is $15 per month. Once you register\, your account will be charged automatically every 30 days\, unless or until you cancel. (Please note: no partial refunds.) \nFree for the Open Heart Project Sangha\n(Please click here to learn more about the Sangha.)\n\n  \nQuestions? Please email Michele.

SUMMARY:Dharma of Diet
DESCRIPTION:When it comes to food\, diet\, nutrition\, and feeling at home in our bodies\, most people struggle to establish a positive relationship. At best\, we may call a truce predicated on the right ratio of calories to cardio. At worst\, we don’t know what to eat\, feel confused about nutrition\, and can no longer tell whether we are hungry or full. Walking into the market or going out to eat with friends can feel threatening. \nWe think that if we finally find the right “diet” something magical will happen: We will feel lovable and happy and discover lasting well being. To this end\, we restrict calories or food groups\, mete out treats and punishments\, get down on ourselves for any infractions\, and basically hope that the next diet will finally fix us. \nWhat ever happened to feeling alive in our bodies? To taking pleasure in taste? To feeling genuinely nourished?\nSusan Piver will host this four week evening e-Course with the founder of Eat to Love\, nutritionist and certified Intuitive Eating counselor (and good pal)\, Jenna Hollenstein. Together\, we will spend four weeks examining our relationship to food and body image to reduce the fear and confusion we have about this most basic function: eating. \nJenna is a fantastic guide who is incredibly well educated in the latest research about nutrition and diet\, but takes a super sensible and realistic view about how we feed ourselves and the meaning we attribute to what and how we eat. In our initial conversations about this program\, I came up with the phrase “magical eating” to describe how many of us approach food–that if we can just get it right\, we will look and feel perfect. What we may ignore in the quest for the “right” diet is the beauty of food as nourishment and joy. \nPlease note: THIS IS NOT A DIET OR NUTRITION PLAN. Although Jenna has distinct ideas about how to eat for health\, we will not be telling you to cut out gluten or eliminate sugar. I mean\, you can if you want\, but this program is about first exploring your relationship to food\, nutrition\, and your body. Through establishing a relationship of self-compassion and trust\, it is much easier to make the right changes for the right reasons with confidence and ease. \nIn meditation\, we make friends with our minds by noticing what we think and feel. In “The Dharma of Diet\,” our intention is to help you make friends with food by noticing how you relate to it.

And because it is a group course\, we are not able to address each individual’s specific needs\, which is essential in eating disorder recovery. If you are being treated for an eating disorder or any other psychological condition (or should be)\, you must check with your healthcare provider(s) before enrolling in this program. If you aren’t sure if this course is appropriate for you\, contact Jenna directly at jenna@eat2love.com and we can discuss. \nI can’t make some (or all) of the classes because I am in a different time zone/have to work/will be too tired (and so on). Can I still benefit from the class?  \nYes. All sessions will be recorded and a link sent out to all participants within 24 hours of the class. You will have a chance to send in questions you’d like Susan or Jenna to cover in the next class. \nI may not be able to keep up with the class due to work\, travel\, or family reasons. If I miss a week will the material be accessible for a while? \nYes. The material will be posted for 120 days from your registration date so you will be able to visit\, and revisit\, the material as often as you like. \nI am interested in meditation\, but I am NOT interested in religion. Will the class require me to learn any doctrine or accept particular beliefs? \nAbsolutely not. Doctrine and beliefs are an obstacle to meditation. You can benefit from the practice if you are Christian\, Hindu\, Pagan\, atheist\, and so on and on. There is no conflict. \nI want to take this class but the timing is not good for me. Will Susan and Jenna be offering it again? \nThey may\, although at this time there is no plan to do so. \nI’ve never taken an online class. Do I need any special equipment or software? \nNo. The class will be held using the Zoom meeting platform. You will receive a link\, and instructions\, for each class the day before the class.  There will be an opportunity to ask questions during each class via a chat window.  All you need is your computer and an internet connection and you may need to download an app prior to joining your first session.  This only takes about 60 seconds but please complete this step prior to the class start time. \n\nMeet The Instructors \nJenna Hollenstein is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) and a Certified Dietitian Nutritionist (CDN) in New York State with a Bachelors degree in Nutrition from Penn State\, a Masters degree in Nutrition from Tufts University.

SUMMARY:Mindful Life Toolbox
DESCRIPTION:A 35-day immersive master class with mindfulness teacher Susan Piver and organizing expert Andrew Mellen\nI’m very excited to announce the return of this 35-day online program that will teach you a management system for your responsibilities\, objectives\, and even your stuff. Instead of ending each day wondering\, “what just happened?” or “where did I put my keys/phone/dreams?” (as I often do)\, you will know exactly what happened because you planned it that way. I am super excited about this. I did the program last year and we can honestly say that\, one year on\, I am still reaping the benefits of less clutter in my home\, inbox\, mind\, and daily life. – Susan Piver \nTo attain these benefits you need two things: mindfulness and knowledge. Susan will supply the former and Andrew\, the latter. \nAndrew Mellen and Susan Piver have developed a unique process for bringing personal organization and mindfulness together to solve a problem that can seem beyond solving: managing the extraordinary amount of information\, details\, and time drains that stand between us and our goals and dreams. \nThis program is for you if:\n\nYou have spent countless hours devising schedules that you never stick to\nYou are constantly searching for the perfect time-management or organization tool that will stem the tide of information overload—but find that none of them work\nYou are self-employed or work at home and experience confusion about how to structure your day\nLooking at your closets\, to-do lists\, drawers\, or desktop (or all of the above) makes you anxious\nYou simply want to feel more on top of your day\, your stuff\, and your life\n\nThe Mindful Life Toolbox is an opportunity to spend a month taking stock of your responsibilities and objectives and the obstacles that stand in your way. You will learn how you spend your time and how to make the shifts you want. You will take stock of the “stuff” of your life and establish a system for managing it. At the end of this program\, you will have greater clarity and a sense of balance in your daily endeavors. \nJanuary 8 – 6:30-8:30p.m. EST: The program begins with a two-hour webinar where you will learn how to meditate\, understand the connection between mindfulness and personal organization\, and learn the goals\, objectives\, and expectations for this program. \nJanuary 9-18: You will begin to apply the lessons of this program immediately. You will receive a detailed plan for gradually introducing mediation into your day. Most important: track your time for a full 10 days. This will be explained in detail\, including suggested apps if you want to track via your mobile device\, on January 8. \nJanuary 18-29: Continue to meditate and simply observe the way you spend your time\, making special note of obstacles\, pitfalls\, and challenges. Don’t implement anything drastic\, just notice. \nJanuary 30 – 10a.m.-5:30p.m. EST and\nJanuary 31 – 10a.m.-1:15p.m. EST: This process culminates with a weekend workshop intensive. Armed with data (and a regular meditation practice)\, you will take stock of your environment and objectives and learn how to bring it all together into a manageable system. \nFebruary 13 – 10 a.m.-12:00p.m. EST: Two weeks later\, we will reconvene for a 75-minute afternoon gathering to check in and address any questions or concerns. \nSupplies:\nA calendar\nA notebook\nA pen/pencil\nInternet access \nFor a detailed schedule\, click here \nLimited to 100 people \nEarly Bird Price: $198 until December 22nd \nBird Price: $243 until January 8th \nLate Bird: $270 on January 8th\n* all amounts USD \nOpen Heart Project Sangha members will receive four additional checklists not available on Andrew’s website and being shared with us exclusively. \nMaterials are made available for 120 days from registration date. \nQuestions?
