SUMMARY:(Remote) Daylong Retreat - Heather Sundberg - Suchness: Understanding Conditions...
DESCRIPTION:An Online\, Daylong Retreat with visiting Senior Teacher Heather Sundberg\nSuchness: Understanding Conditions\, Responding with Compassion\n\nFrom the perspective of Suchness we understand causes and conditions which lead to suffering and to freedom\, and from that we can connect with what Ajahn Amaro calls ‘the texture of experience’\, opening our hearts with a caring attitude to things as they are.\n\nEnjoy a day of quiet sitting and walking meditation\, which allow our body & mind to settle down and our hearts to open to an inner wisdom. In addition to insight meditation practice\, Heather will offer teachings & guided meditations on the theme\, as well as optional Qi Gong practice & discussion about how to live these teachings in our daily lives.\n\nIn this daylong we will explore this Subtle Characteristic of Suchness from the following perspectives:\n\n 	Using the Buddha’s teaching to Bahiya as well as the teaching of the Two Arrows\, and teachings on Conditionality.\n 	Exploring practices from the Thai forest tradition\, including Ajahn Sumedho’s famous teaching ‘It’s like this’.\n 	Deepening the Heart Practice of Compassion.\n 	Deepening inner Resiliency through Somatic Practices.\n\nNote there will be a lunch break from Noon to 1:00 pm.\n\n\nHEATHER SUNDBERG has taught insight meditation since 1999\, has completed the Spirit Rock/IMS Teacher Training\, and is currently on the Spirit Rock Teacher’s Council. Beginning her own meditation practice in her late teens\, for the last 25 years Heather has studied with senior teachers in the Insight Meditation (Vipassana) and Tibetan (Vajrayana) traditions and has sat 1-3 months of retreat a year for the last 25 years. She was the Spirit Rock Family & Teen Program Teacher & Manager for a decade. Between 2010 and 2015 she spent a cumulative one-year in study\, practice\, and pilgrimage in Asia. Since 2011\, she has been a Teacher at Mountain Stream Meditation Center and sister communities in the Sierra Foothills\, and teaches retreats nationally and internationally. Her teaching emphasizes embodiment\, compassion\, awareness\, and practical wisdom. For more information about Heather visit www.heathersundberg.com.\nThe Teacher offers the teachings freely in the tradition of the Buddha\, and her livelihood is completely sustained by the generosity of the communities she serves.
