SUMMARY:(Remote) Daylong Retreat - Dennis Warren - Suffering Well
DESCRIPTION:An online\, One Day Retreat with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren\nThe Experience and Possibilities of “Suffering Well”\nWe study\, read books\, listen to talks and discuss what it means to practice well and to live well. Learning how to suffer well is a third foundational contemplative and meditative skill. We don’t look at that so often. It may be a foreign idea or counter-intuitive for many of us.\nWhat does it mean to “suffer well”? What is the experience and feeling in the body\, in the mind and in the heart? How does suffering well express itself in our thoughts\, actions and speech? How does it support practicing and living well.\nWe are in a period of enormous transition as a world\, as a culture\, as families\, as individuals\, as spiritual beings. This means lots of suffering – uncertainty\, confusion\, ambiguity\, doubt\, anxiousness\, maybe worse – and significant possibilities. How can understanding and developing the skill of suffering well serve us during this period of change. How can it open up new possibilities for us as practitioners\, in relationships\, and in our understanding what it means to be alive and human on this planet at this moment in history.\nThese are the themes\, and practices which support them\, we’ll explore during this one-day retreat. \n(Pre-registration is required.) \nDENNIS WARREN is SIM’s Founding Teacher and has been teaching mindfulness\, meditation and contemplative practices since 1998.
