"Resilience & Compassion in Times of Chaos" Sensei Koshin Paley Ellison Sensei Robert Chodo Campbell

The Garrison Institute presents a live webinar with Sensei Koshin Paley Ellison and Sensei Robert Chodo Campbell, co-founders of the New York Zen Center for Contemplative Care.
The world has reached a major crossroads in the form of a viral pandemic. While we may have to physically distance ourselves from each other, how do we use this time to move towards connection and intimacy, rather than recoil in fear and further emotional isolation? How can we find the intimacy that is always available moment to moment?
During this rare opportunity to be together, Zen teachers Sensei Koshin Paley Ellison and Sensei Chodo Campbell will share their thoughts on meditation practices and attitudes that can support us to live our values, root them in our bodies and widen out. Together we will practice waking up to living wholeheartedly, not only in the face of crises, but always.
We invite you to consider making a tax-deductible contribution with your registration to support our virtual sanctuary.

Your support matters. Our vision for a more just, compassionate world has never felt more urgent. While we cannot share physical space together, we remain committed to a shared practice of social and spiritual care. We are thankful for the opportunity to create a virtual sanctuary during this time of physical distancing. If you feel called to support our work, we welcome your tax-deductible contribution toward our efforts.
