Every third Wednesday of the month
January 21st to December 16th, 2009
A Twelve Month Workshop
Based on the Book
A YEAR TO LIVE
By Stephen Levine
With Roshi Enkyo O'Hara & Robert Chodo Campbell
Through meditation, reading, writing, lecture and group discussion, we will practice together as if this were our last year to live. We will review our life and our connections to others. Most importantly we will create a safe space for intimacy to face our fears and for courageous reflection. These are some of the tools we will use in order to be more fully alive.
