Janine Schipper
|
|
|
This talk explores the restless, chattering mind and how it pulls us from the present moment. With humor and reflection, Janine considers how to meet our thoughts with curiosity, compassion, and awareness. We end with a guided meditation that invites us to rest in the awareness that holds everything, even a mind crowded with thoughts.

The Tao of Okayness
20:48
|
|
Janine Schipper
|
|
|
In this talk, we explore a resilient kind of okayness — one that can embrace our heartbreak, anger, and hope simultaneously. This talk isn't about pretending everything is fine, nor is it about fixing or escaping difficult emotions. Instead, it's about cultivating the capacity to stay present, aware, and grounded in the midst of it all, allowing us to hold our experiences with acceptance and clarity.

Exploring No-Self
37:33
|
|
Janine Schipper
|
|
|
In this talk, Janine delves into the Buddhist concept of Anatta, or No-Self, highlighting how, while the other two "marks of existence" — dukkha (suffering) and anicca (impermanence) — seem self-evident, the idea of no-self can seem perplexing. However, it doesn't have to be that way. Join Janine for a clear and accessible exploration of no-self and discover what lies beyond our usual understanding of who we are.
