[Downtown Dharma Sangha Listserv] This Sunday, Pause • Relax • Open: An Evening of Insight Dialogue

Dear Dharma Friends,

I am so happy to be returning to this beautiful sangha and grateful to be sharing the evening with my dear friend and fellow Insight Dialogue practitioner, Mira Tessman.

One of the beautiful possibilities of relational mindfulness is that, when we Pause, Relax, and Open, we create space to meet our experience with greater wisdom and kindness.  Rather than reacting from habit, we begin to respond with more presence, clarity, and care.

Together, we'll explore these three simple yet profound practices and discover how they can deepen our relationships—helping us listen more fully, speak more mindfully, and experience the ease and freedom that can emerge when we bring mindful awareness into our conversations.

Whether you're new to Insight Dialogue or have practiced before, we'd love to welcome you for an evening of shared practice, genuine connection, and exploration.

In person: Yoga District
1910 14th Street NW, 3rd Floor
Washington, DC
Please arrive 5–10 minutes early.

Online via Zoom: Join here

With loving-kindness,

Michele Bledsoe & Mira Tessman

Thanks to our July facilitators for a really cool meetup! I'm excited for the next Dharma Book Club gathering. Here are the details: 

August Book Club: Letting Go

• Date: Saturday, August 29 from 2:00-4:00pm
• Location: Jane's home, 19th & Florida NW. (We'll share the exact address with attendees closer to the event.)
• Reading: Letting Go by David Hawkins (free PDF here)
• Host & Facilitator: Jane

Quick note on RSVPs: Based on the community poll, we'll continue using a mix of Partiful and Google Sheets moving forward, depending on each host's preference. That said, I know not everyone enjoys using third-party apps, and I want to make sure everyone can participate. If you'd rather not use Partiful, simply email me, and I'll add you as my guest and make sure you receive all the event details directly.

With metta,
Kerrigan

[Downtown Dharma Sangha Listserv] Responding with Compassion: July 14th, 6:45-7:30m

Hi Dharma Friends, 

Responding with Compassion: An Introduction to the Immigration Justice Vigil
Tuesday, July 14 • 6:45–7:30 PM

As we witness so many interwoven challenges in our world, it can be difficult to know how to respond.  The needs are immense, and it's natural to feel overwhelmed or experience a sense of collective grief.

Please join Hugh Byrne and members of CML, IMCW, and other Dharma and mindfulness communities across the DMV who have been actively supporting our immigrant neighbors. They will share about their work in immigration justice and the upcoming July 30 vigil outside the Hyattsville Immigration Court.

The vigil includes walking meditation, loving-kindness practice, and readings from Buddhist and other faith traditions as an expression of care, compassion, and solidarity with those coming before the court.

You'll also hear reflections from those who have participated in the vigil, learn what to expect if you choose to attend, and discover ways to support this important work. We'll also introduce a new resource for sangha members to connect with one another as they explore bringing the Dharma into action.

Whether you're simply curious, feeling called to participate, or looking for ways to respond with compassion, we hope you'll join us.

You can participate via this Zoom link.
