SUMMARY:Awaken Self-Compassion Through Art Journaling\, Online 9/8–9/29
DESCRIPTION:The Zoom link to participate in this event will be provided at least 24 hours before it begins. Please call 415-354-0360 if you have any questions. \n \n\nFour Tuesdays\, 10 – 11:30 am PT \nHas it been harder to be kind to yourself in the last few years? When we awaken self-compassion\, we connect with our true nature. We remember that we’re not alone\, and that uncertainty isn’t our fault—it’s at the heart of being human. \nIf you struggle with self-judgment\, you may feel cut off from your innate creativity. Art journaling offers a gentle and meaningful way to re-engage with this part of yourself. \nIn this nurturing and experiential class\, Lea will guide you in: \n\nCreating a criticism-free zone in your life through art journaling\nDiscovering and exploring the fundamentals of self-compassion\nGetting more comfortable with uncertainty as we continue to face it together\nPracticing self-compassion in a playful\, creative way\n\nEach class includes meditation\, experiential teaching\, art journaling\, and group discussion. The goal is to bring a spirit of curiosity and self-compassion to the joys and challenges of everyday life. \nArt experience is not necessary! These are very simple\, accessible creative practices. It’s more about the heart than the art! \nSuggested Supplies:Watercolor sets and paper (either one is great) \n\nWatercolor set\nWatercolor pad (any watercolor pad of this size with 30 pages would work well)\n\nRecordings:All course sessions will be recorded\, and registered participants will receive temporary access to the recordings for later viewing.

SUMMARY:Young Urban Zen
DESCRIPTION:YUZ meets in person weekly in the Buddha Hall of City Center on 300 Page Street. \nFor the latest information\, visit the Young Urban Zen site. \n\nTuesday evenings\, 7:15 – 8:45 pm \nYoung Urban Zen (YUZ) is a group under the auspices of the San Francisco Zen Center\, with a particular focus on those between 20 and 40 though anyone is welcome to attend. \nIt meets on Tuesday evenings for meditation and discussion about Zen practice.
