Caterpillars and Butterflies: a Zoom Half-Day of Mindfulness with Dharma Teacher John Bell

Saturday February 21: 10:00-1:30pm

Please come join us as we explore questions like: Where is home? Where do I belong? What if I embraced myself with unconditional love? What is unbroken wholeness? How can I more deeply touch the ground of being? What do I need to let go of in order to be free? For more information: https://cmnymetro.groups.io/g/CMNY/messages?expanded=1
