At Home In Your Heart
with Dr. Bonnie Duran, Ph.D. + Tempel Smith
Join MARC (UCLA's Mindful Awareness Research Center) for a 5-day training of mindful loving awareness (metta) using home as the base of practice.
With metta (friendliness, kindness, agape) we cultivate calm embodiment, a steady capacity to appreciate all living beings, and we dissolve the habits that dull our ability to see each other with respect.

| Cool, I can do it from home in Fort Wayne! |
The greatest impact of metta is often to quiet our own harsh inner-critic and learn to befriend ourselves.
The daily retreat format will combine shared sitting and walking meditations with instruction, as well as an evening meditation with a discussion about the theory behind the practices.
Afternoons during the training will have suggested practices to further strengthen and integrate loving-awareness throughout our home life.
