At the time, the concepts felt too dense and beyond comprehension. It wasn’t until sometime in 2015 that those concepts would begin to unravel before him when a close friend would invite him to the Shambhala center and then Wake Up New York. Since then he’s taken on a more active role within the Wake Up community by facilitating and eventually becoming a member of the Care-Taking Council. Having spent years working administrative roles throughout his career, he aspires to share and implement the concepts and practices of mindfulness to more corporate environments</span></span></p><span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Additional Resources:</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <a href="https://plumvillage.org/sutra/discourse-on-happiness/">https://plumvillage.org/sutra/discourse-on-happiness/</a></span></span></span>David Flinthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00723765720970185120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5719795374321257364.post-43833193367423964092021-02-14T20:58:00.002-08:002021-02-14T20:58:53.220-08:00<p> </p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><i><span style="color: #2b00fe;">COMMUNITY OF MINDFULNESS/ NEW YORK METRO</span></i></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-small;">Inspired by the Teachings and Practice of Thich Nhat Hanh</span></i></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Invites you to a Day of Mindfulness</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>Saturday, February 20, </b>10am-1:30pm</p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><i><span style="color: #741b47; font-size: medium;">*FearLess: Connecting with the Teaching of Joanne Friday*</span></i></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><i><span style="color: #741b47; font-size: medium;">With Dharma Teacher Bruce Nichols</span></i></b></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #134f5c;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #134f5c;">Bruce shares:</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #134f5c;"> ” My own practice has been deeply</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #134f5c;">influenced by my relationship with Joanne who was my</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #134f5c;">mentor, friend, and a guiding light on my personal</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #134f5c;">journey with Plum Village practice.
