Our Natural Connection to the Earth: Healing from Separation
With Kodo Conover and Denise Gour, LCSW
May 22, 2021
**An in-person event** Since we humans have walked the earth, we have found wisdom and healing through connection with nature. In this in person workshop we will explore practices drawn from the deep well of Buddhist traditions and indigenous teachings from around the world.
Immersing ourselves in the dharma of nature will inspire awareness of our interconnected web of life shared throughout earth, throughout the universe. We will explore what nature shows us to be true minute by minute, breath by breath.
By seeing and releasing the grip of our fixed views we open awareness to the present moment and wonder of our world.
Join us in uncovering the wonderful teaching that nature provides, teachings that are always available and accessible. Nature is always resilient; nature can heal our sense of separation.
We will meet in person at Heart of Wisdom Zen Temple. Please bring a lunch as our meal together will be part of our practice.
