Finding Equanimity in Challenging Times with Sharon Salzberg

Sharon Salzberg, world-renowned meditation and mindfulness teacher and New York Times best-selling author, joins us for this special event to offer a much-needed teaching for these challenging times. Sharon shows us that true equanimity is about meeting life, no matter what arises, with an open and responsive heart. It is a steadiness of mind and a calm understanding that allows us to be with the constantly changing and shifting landscape of our world.

Co-hosted with The Aligned Center and The Contemplative Studies Minor at Purchase College, SUNY. Free to Attend to Purchase College Contemplative Studies Students and Faculty.

Qigong Ecstacy Workshop with Robert Peng Virtual Event

Taught by Qigong Master, Robert Peng

A collaboration with The Aiigned Center and SUNY Purchase Contemplative Studies Program

Qigong is an ancient Chinese art that utilizes breathing, movement, and visualization to circulate Qi energy. Where water flows freely in nature, such as a mountain stream, it is pure, clean, rich in minerals, and is safe, healthy, and enjoyable to drink. If the flow of this same water source were to be blocked, however, and it stagnated, the water would become murky and attract disease.

Similarly, when Qi energy (also known as life force energy) flows smoothly through the body, our internal organs absorb its radiant force, and therefore become nourished and strengthened. When our internal organs function at their best, we feel great.

On the other hand, when we experience chronic stress, the body tightens, and “blockages” form. These obstructions interfere with the energy that naturally flows through every one of us. The fresh mountain stream becomes a series of stagnant ponds, murky and unhealthy. The internal organs eventually become deprived of vitality, and they weaken. Symptoms appear and eventually, diseases form.

Robert will teach an online workshop of Qigong Ecstasy and Oceans Whispers breathing technique. The Qigong exercises taught in this workshop use gentle movement to chip away at our “blockages” and reinvigorate the flow of Qi energy. As the obstructions disappear, so do many symptoms, and vitality is restored to the body and mind. Robert Peng, an acclaimed Qigong master, guides participants in this virtual two-hour Qigong workshop to help replenish the mind and body.
