Rather than analyzing\, explaining\, or telling stories\, we explore what is actually happening in our body\, heart\, mind\, and awareness right now. Over time\, this practice can deepen meditation\, increase self-understanding\, and reveal new possibilities for insight and growth. \nAll levels of experience are welcome. \nThis group is offered in a hybrid format\, with participants joining both in person and online. If you are comfortable with Zoom and breakout rooms\, we’d welcome a volunteer to help support online participants.

There’s no fee\, though donations to Awakening Truth are gratefully received. \n\nA Glimpse of the SHINE Practice\nSHINE helps us move gently against the brain’s negativity bias — training attention to recognize\, receive\, and deepen what’s good. \nS – Sense:\nBegin by sensing something that feels good\, safe\, or supportive — a pleasant sensation\, a moment of connection\, or a feeling of gratitude in the present moment. \nH – Hold:\nStay with the experience for a few breaths. Let it fill your awareness so it can imprint in the nervous system. \nI – Inquire:\nGently explore what makes this experience feel good and where you notice it. \nN – Nourish:\nLike tending a garden\, water the goodness with openness\, curiosity\, and attention. Soften resistance and keep returning to what’s alive and wholesome. \nE – Enhance:\nLet the feeling grow and spread through your body\, heart\, and mind. Imagine carrying it with you into daily life\, strengthening new neural pathways of joy and resilience. \n  \n  \nFor donations\, please see https://awakeningtruth.org/donation/.

SUMMARY:Talk: The Hidden Intelligence of Anger - Hybrid in Minneapolis\, with Common Ground
DESCRIPTION:The Buddha identified anger as one of the three root poisons—but the tradition has rarely paused to ask: which anger? \nThe anger of violated boundaries is not the same as the anger arising from trauma\, masking grief\, confronting injustice\, protecting integrity\, or carrying what has been passed down through generations. They may all be called anger\, but they arise from different conditions\, have different needs\, and invite different responses. \nThe Dharma offers profound tools for working with anger. The question is whether we’ve always known which tool to apply to which kind of anger. \n  \n  \nThis event is offered in partnership with Common Ground Meditation Center\, and is offered both in-person in Minneapolis at Common Ground (2700 E 26th St)\, and online on Zoom. For the Zoom link\, please see Common Ground’s website: \nhttps://commongroundmeditation.org/calendar/event/guest-teacher-talk-with-amma-thanasanti-the-hidden-intelligence-of-anger-rnMukU5nEa5BdQYvkp3bv4

SUMMARY:Inquiry: Turning Toward Anger - Hybrid in Minneapolis\, with Common Ground
DESCRIPTION:We spend a lot of energy managing anger — containing it\, avoiding it\, or being consumed by it. This session invites something different: turning toward it with curiosity rather than aversion or indulgence. \nThrough guided meditation and paired inquiry\, we will explore what it means to be with anger rather than driven by it. We will practice developing the steadiness and curiosity that allows difficult emotions to be met without being overwhelming — staying close to direct experience rather than analysis\, and noticing what becomes available when anger is approached with enough care to be heard. \n  \n  \n  \nThis event is offered in partnership with Common Ground Meditation Center\, and is offered both in-person in Minneapolis at Common Ground (2700 E 26th St)\, and online on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Workshop: When Anger Becomes a Teacher - Hybrid in Minneapolis\, with Common Ground
DESCRIPTION:Most of us have been taught that anger is a problem to be solved — suppressed\, expressed\, managed\, or transcended. But what if the problem isn’t the anger itself? What if the problem is that we haven’t yet understood what it is trying to tell us? \nThrough teaching\, guided practice\, and small group inquiry\, we will work with a central question: \nWhat kind of anger is this\, and what does it need? \n  \n  \n  \nThis event is offered in partnership with Common Ground Meditation Center\, and is offered both in-person in Minneapolis at Common Ground (2700 E 26th St)\, and online on Zoom.
