Meditation: It’s Not What You Think! with Mary Carpenter

Chesapeake Forum brings you Mediation: It’s Not What You Think! with Mary Carpenter. There are many misconceptions about meditation, but ultimately, it is about transformation. It is about letting go of the known to reveal the unknown. The fruits of meditation are not realized while sitting in the practice. They are expressed outwardly in your daily life as Truth within is realized. The good news is that it does not require a huge time commitment to realize some of the possible benefits of greater compassion and patience, as well as gain a mind that is not so likely to run amok.

Take a brief three-week journey with me to review different meditation practices. Then learn a simple, silent, yet powerful Christian meditation called Christ-Centered Prayer Meditation — a practice of resting in awareness of your Spiritual Heart Center area. We will discuss and explore what is happening in the practice and what may flow out of the practice into your daily life. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

This 3 session HYBRID course takes place on Thursday, Feb 10, 17, 24 from 4:30 to 6:00 pm, $30. You may choose in-person at the Easton Peachblossom YMCA, or Zoom PLEASE NOTE: This hybrid course is NOT being recorded.
