In the face of feeling alone and afraid, each of us longs for connection and peace. This talk explores our habitual ways of seeking false refuge, and the archetypal gateways that carry us home to our own awakened heart. Our time together will include guided meditations and a period of questions and sharing.

Tara Brach is a leading western teacher of Buddhist meditation and spiritual awakening. She has practiced and taught meditation for more than 35 years, with an emphasis on Vipassana (mindfulness or insight) meditation. Tara is the senior teacher and founder of the Insight Meditation Community of Washington. A clinical psychologist, she has taught extensively on the application of Buddhist teachings to emotional healing. Brach authored "Radical acceptance: Embracing Your Life With the Heart of a Buddha," and - in 2013 - "True Refuge: Finding Peace and Freedom in Your Own Awakened Heart."
