celebrating bell hooks & all about love

ONLINE 1-day workshop Saturday, 6/18/22

SFZC City Center 9:30 am - 4:30 pm PST

“I want to know about the meaning of love beyond the realm of fantasy --- beyond what we imagine can happen. I want to know love’s truths as we live them.”

We all want love. 

And, having and holding love and loving feelings can be challenging, especially if we've had challenging conditioning and experiences in our lives. Join us in exploring how love can be when expressed in conjunction with the qualities of the Four Divine States, or Brahma Viharas: 

• Equanimity/Resilience

• Lovingkindness/Goodwill

• Compassion and

• Inclusive Joy 

While grounded in these teachings and meditation practices, the course will be framed by short readings from bell hook's All About Love: New Visions; offering a blend of fierce feminist social criticism to ask us to transform our challenges into strength, manifesting the love and caring we want in our lives.

A shortened version of the popular 4-week series
