Event Description
Life is full of challenges: personal, professional and political.
Some challenges we welcome; others we wish would just go away. The bad news is
that there’s no remote; we can’t switch to a different challenge. The good news
is that we can befriend ourselves in a way that makes us more resilient and
better able to cope with adversity. The practice of self-compassion is a simple
and powerful way to navigate the challenges that come our way. This is not
selfishness or self-indulgence, but the courage to make friends with reality.
Jude Robison has been practicing mindfulness meditation since 1980
and has taught meditation in cities across the United States and Canada.
Formerly the co-director of Karme Choling Meditation Center in Vermont, she is currently
a senior teacher and lead meditation instructor at the Philadelphia Shambhala
Meditation Center. Movement is fully incorporated in her mindfulness practice
through Contemplative Dance Practice and The Quiet Circus performance project. She
has a BA in Philosophy and an MFA in Bookarts and Printmaking.
