Dharma Talks at Nyingma Institute

Upcoming Talks

“Nurturing Compassion in Tough Times” — Dharma Talk at Nyingma Institute on Sunday, June 15th at 6-7pm Pacific Time

In this world of climate change, ongoing global distress, and communities divided by political discourse, we need compassion now more than ever. Compassion can heal divisiveness, and encourage helping, and build community, but it can be hard to muster the strength to do it when we feel so shaken ourselves. It is a challenge to maintain compassion for yourself during tumultuous times and offer compassion to others – especially those people with opposing views. Nyingma Instructor and Psychological Scientist Dr. Erika Rosenberg will explore these concerns and offer some gentle practices for finding stability and building strength in the face of adversity. Online via Zoom and in-person at Nyingma Institute
