ENERGY MATTERS SANGHA
Wisdom Teachings for the Polycrisis
While it may feel like the current challenges we face are unique to our time and place - and no doubt they are - suffering caused by greed, hatred, and delusion, unenlightened leaders, and social and political upheaval have plagued humans for much of our history. We don’t have to figure out how to navigate these difficult times of impermanence on our own.
Fortunately, there are many sage teachers who have passed along wisdom about navigating times of turmoil, providing grounding and direction today.
Please join me for Wisdom Teachings for the Polycrisis
Next meeting is Monday, July 28, 5:30 - 6:45 pm in person at Energy Matters.
Needing some inner peace?
At Energy Matters, we want to acknowledge how difficult it’s been and how the hits seem to keep on coming.
We, each of us, have access to affect change, whether large or small.
So that we may be able to do this gracefully, grounded, and with compassion, Energy Matters would like to offer this On Demand course on a choose-what-you-pay starting at $20.Â
