Essential Spirituality
What if the world’s spiritual traditions have more in common than we realize?
In this series, we’ll explore Essential Spirituality: The 7 Central Practices to Awaken Heart and Mind by Roger Walsh, a thoughtful exploration of the practices that appear across many of the world’s spiritual traditions.
Rather than focusing on one particular religious path, Walsh looks beneath the differences to discover common practices that can help us awaken, grow, and live more fully. Along the way, we’ll consider ideas about desire, attention, ethical living, relationships, wisdom, and spiritual practice—and, most importantly, how these ideas can become something we actually experience and practice in our own lives.
Each gathering will give us an opportunity to explore the book together, share our own perspectives and experiences, and consider what these timeless practices might have to say to us today.
Come ready to read, reflect, question, and discover what resonates with you.
