SUMMARY:Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD) Postcard Writing Event
DESCRIPTION:Support choice at the end of life \nJoin fellow UUs throughout NY in urging state lawmakers to enact the NY Medical Aid in Dying Act\, known as MAiD. All Souls members advocating for the legislation will offer information and ready-made postcards for you to send your state lawmakers after services on April 28th and May 5th. Now legal in 10 states and DC\, MAiD would give a terminally ill\, mentally capable adult with a prognosis of six months or less the option to request\, obtain and take medication to die peacefully in their sleep and when they choose. Model after Oregon’s Death With Dignity Act\, the NY MAiD Act (S2445a/A995a) is supported by 70% of NY voters in recent polling\, as well as the NYS Bar Association and the Medical Society of NYS\, plus a growing number of medical\, legal\, religious groups and policymakers.  To convince elected officials in Albany to act in support this year\, demonstrable support from the public is urgently needed. \nAll Souls MAiD advocates will provide the materials – join us!

SUMMARY:Cognitively-Based Compassion Training
DESCRIPTION:Are you a compassionate person?\nHow do you know you are?\nAre you aware of how you behave when you’re feeling compassion?\nAre those behaviors interpreted the way you want them to be by others? \nHow can we strengthen our compassion for self and others\, even others who may be adversaries? \nCompassion includes at least two key components: recognition of suffering and a motivation to help. This requires we have affection for others and an awareness of their distress. We desire that someone be free from suffering. Our compassion has an affective or feeling component and a cognitive component that includes the awareness of others’ difficulties. \nResearch with CBCT shows that compassion can improve our affect\, alleviate stress\, decrease depression\, and increase self-acceptance. Biologically\, compassion is linked to lower cortisol levels and reduced inflammation processes in the body. It has helped cancer patients experience less fear and more hope. \nAbout the teacher: Miles brings a decade of intensive study (over 10\,000 hours) in a range of mind-body disciplines to bear on his work as a meditation teacher and therapist. He leads meditation retreats and programs\, coaches individuals one-on-one\, is a core member of a team building a meditation app (Madrona Meditation)\, and is the co-founder of Dharma Gates (a non-profit that connects young people to meditation practice). Much of his training was with Buddhist teachers including two years of solitary retreat (under the guidance of B. Alan Wallace\, Ph.D. and Roshi Joan Halifax\, Ph.D.)\, and three years at various monasteries and practice centers in the United States and Asia. Miles also completed a 1\,600 hour Am.SAT Alexander Technique teacher training and is certified to teach Emory’s Cognitively Based Compassion Training course (CBCT)\, and Stanford’s Compassion Cultivation Training course (CCT). Miles earned a Master’s of Applied Positive Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania and a Master of Social Work at Columbia University. His work sits at the intersection of meditation\, trauma\, Buddhism\, psychedelics\, and positive psychology. \n  \nWe are asking for a donation of $250 for this course. Usually CBCT is more expensive\, and Miles has generously offered it to us at reduced cost. The donation will be shared by Miles and Buddhism & Mindfulness at All Souls. That said\, no-one will be turned away due to lack of funds. Your motivation to do the course is what matters most. Class size is limited. To register\, email Rebecca Izuchokwu at rebecca@allsoulsnyc.org.

SUMMARY:Single Parent Support Circle
DESCRIPTION:Hey there\, single parents! We’ve got something special just for you – a weekly virtual support group where we’ll dive deep into the rollercoaster ride of single parenting. Being a single parent is no joke. We don’t have a partner to tag in when things get overwhelming\, or to share those proud moments when our kids achieve greatness. But fear not\, because we’ve got your back! We aim to create a safe space where you can connect with other single parents\, share your triumphs and joys\, and learn new strategies to stay sane amidst the chaos. We’ll help you recharge and care for the most critical person in your child’s life – YOU. \nClick this link to join the meeting. \nContact Dr. Chris Rogutsky with any questions.

You are most welcome to attend whether or not you’ve done the reading. We start with a short meditation; Pamela summarizes the chapter; Harry Miller reflects on the teachings\, and then we have a discussion (you can choose whether you’d like to go to a breakout room or stay in the main room for a larger group conversation). Each session is standalone\, so you can drop in whenever you wish. \nZOOM LINK \nPassword: Peace \nAbout the book: \n“Enlightenment does exist\,” internationally renowned author and meditation master Jack Kornfield assures us. “Unbounded freedom and joy\, oneness with the divine . . . these experiences are more common than you know\, and not far away.” But even after achieving such realization—after the ecstasy—we are faced with the day—to-day task of translating that freedom into our imperfect lives. We are faced with the laundry.Drawing on the experiences and insights of leaders and practitioners within the Buddhist\, Christian\, Jewish\, Hindu\, and Sufi traditions\, this book offers a uniquely intimate and honest understanding of how the modern spiritual journey unfolds—and how we can prepare our hearts for awakening. Through moving personal stories and traditional tales\, we learn how the enlightened heart navigates the real world of family relationships\, emotional pain\, earning a living\, sickness\, loss\, and death. \nAbout the author:\nJack Kornfield is an internationally renowned Buddhist teacher and meditation master\, and a cofounder of the Insight Meditation Society and of Spirit Rock Center in Northern California. A former Buddhist monk\, he holds a PhD in clinical psychology. His books include A Path with Heart\, Buddha’s Little Instruction Book\, and After the Ecstasy.
