Whether you are unable to attend our Daily and Sunday meditation programs at their scheduled times or just want to go back and revisit something the teachers shared, this is the place to watch those videos. Generally, our recordings are edited and published to the archives early in the week following the schedule events. And please, consider offering your support to make these archives possible for you and the whole community.

This Resilience and Nature course reveals how mindfulness in nature supports you to live with a steady presence and peaceful heart in the midst of turbulent conditions. And best of all, these practices are not limited to the “great outdoors”. You can practice meditation in nature anywhere: in your garden, on your balcony, or while simply looking out a window or gazing at a plant in your home. Each practice allows you to connect to the power of nature’s stillness and wisdom. They will fortify you with resilience.

In Meditating in Nature, Mark Coleman invites us to cultivate “the joy and profundity of a nature-based practice.” Across eight guided sessions, Mark reveals how the simplest of experiences ~ “listening to morning birdsong, gazing up at the vastness of the night sky, lying in a wildflower meadow”  ~ can make meditation more effortless and enjoyable, and even “open the mind to insight about timeless truths.”

Ancient wisdom teachings, including those of the Buddha, ask humans to pay attention to the richness of life on our planet, to offer gratitude for all that we receive, and to care for all living things. And yet, while the earth calls for our attention, our focus is lost in digital screens and indoor living. As a result, we feel deeply disconnected, distracted, and dulled. We also fail to respond wisely as the earth and its species suffer greatly.

The good news? We can reawaken our sensory awareness by stepping out into any natural setting and skillfully expanding the field of our attention. Through meditation in the natural world, we can open our minds and hearts, and form a deeper connection with all living things.
