“Sacred Grounding in Turbulent Times” is a time to gather online and engage contemplative practices and build community.

Many of us are anxious about the upcoming election and are engaging current events in a variety of ways. This four weeks series offers a way to join with others for contemplative practices to ground us all more deeply in resources that will help us engage current events spiritually and emotionally in healing and life-giving ways. 

We will begin with various kinds of practices such as pranayama, simple movements, chant, poetry/ lectio divina, music/audio divina, visualization, silence. After a few introductory remarks by Dr. Farley, we offer space for comments or prayer requests. We will meet Thursdays at 4:00 Eastern time. 

October 10, 17, 24, 31 4:00PM-4:45PM, Eastern time.…
