Community Conversation Series
With Consuela Chapman

In this meditation series, we invite participants to explore and clarify their definition of love, compassion and forgiveness by examining the concept of “Metta”. In each 90 min session, we focuse on using Metta to explore our loving relationships with others but more importantly with ourselves. We will offer a mix of informational talk, journal prompts, and opportunities to share; followed by a short Metta meditation.
