Series: Mindful Awareness in the Face of Impermanence – 8/30 thru 11/01
$150.00
WisdomWord is excited to offer a new 10-week Empowerment Teaching Series: Mindful Awareness in the Face of Impermanence. The NEW series begins Sunday, August 30th and runs through November 1st, 2026.
*Note this class is compatible with the upcoming 5-week Master Class Series on Impermanence Modules 1 and 2 (coming in September, on Zoom).
In our last 10-week teaching series, we explored how impermanence can be understood as a gift rather than something to fear. Learning that the Buddha’s first and last teachings focused on impermanence sparked my curiosity. As I looked more deeply, I came to understand a powerful truth: when we regularly reflect on the fact that all things must end, we can lessen the shock and anxiety that often accompany endings – not only the death of the body, but also the ending of relationships, beliefs, systems, and even the earth herself. Change becomes less frightening, and we grow more comfortable with uncertainty. As we develop a new perspective on change and the importance of facing impermanence, we also recognize the need for mindfulness.
Mindfulness is the ability to remain fully present and aware in the moment without becoming overly reactive or thrown off balance by what is happening around us.
Students in the last series discovered that turning toward impermanence through meditation offered a meaningful source of insight and support, especially during a time of profound change for the earth and for our shared human family. By contemplating the ever-changing nature of life, they began to meet challenges with greater acceptance and to recognize impermanence as a truth woven through all living beings. This awareness can soften fear, open the heart, and invite deeper peace along with renewed hope for healing and positive change.
Throughout this series, we will be using Mindfulness and Meditation to remain awake, aware, and fully present in the moment with awareness of impermanence.
The series runs for 10 consecutive Sundays. This series of Empowerment Teachings includes 10 one-hour live calls every Sunday starting August 30, 2026 and ending with class on November 1, 2026. The live calls will be conducted from 8:30 to 9:30 am Pacific (11:30am to 12:30pm Eastern). You will receive a call-in number to join the live call each of those ten Sundays. PLEASE NOTE THE TIME!
If you are unable to join the live call that’s OK – you can listen to the recordings! A downloadable mp3 file of the call will be e-mailed to you after the call. You will also receive a number and pin code that allows you to listen to a recording of each new call, at any time, for one week. You are welcome to join the live call, listen to the recording, or download and listen to the mp3 recording you receive. You may keep these teachings to return to whenever you need to review the class.
