SUMMARY:Registration closes today for Beyond Distraction\, an in-depth online course
DESCRIPTION:Beyond Distraction: Strategies to Free The Mind\nREGISTER: Now — Sep 27\, 2020\nCOURSE: Sep 30 — Dec 30\, 2020\nMental restlessness is an insidious and pervasive hindrance that most practitioners struggle to overcome. How many times have you let go of a thought\, only to find it morph into a similar story a few minutes later? \nMany kinds of thoughts can distract us from being mindful and disrupt our concentration: obsessive planning\, worrying\, lustful thoughts\, judging\, memories\, and internal commentaries\, to name a few. This course will explore a sequence of practical strategies for dealing with obstructive mental patterns derived from two discourses taught by the Buddha (MN 19 and 20). \n\nTwo Kinds of Thought\nThe Removal of Distracting Thoughts\n\nEach learning module in the course is enriched with lectures\, guided meditations\, exercises\, related sutta readings\, discussion forums\, and audio conferences with the teacher. A variety of reflective exercises will help you integrate these ancient strategies into daily life situations. \nFor more information and registration details go to BodhiCourses.org. \nCo-sponsored by Bodhi Courses and Insight Meditation South Bay

SUMMARY:Online – Obstacles to Concentration: Registration March 1- April 27
DESCRIPTION:Overcoming Obstacles to Concentration \nMarch 1 – April 27: Registration period\nMay 3 – July 27: Course includes 6 content modules in ten-day sections\, plus welcome and wrap up modules. \nMeditation practice cultivates inner peace\, clarity\, concentration and joy. In order to experience these lovely qualities\, we must overcome the challenges of agitation\, dullness\, obsessive thinking\, physical pain\, difficult emotions\, and reactivity. In this course we will identify\, investigate\, and learn to skillfully overcome obstacles to concentration and insight. Through inquiry into how the mind functions we will recognize the presence\, absence\, and causal conditions for hindrances\, and transform habitual patterns that might obstruct wholesome states. Once the obstacles have been understood and overcome\, the path to deep and stable states of concentration will be clear\, and mindfulness of the processes of mind and body will be firmly established. \nThe course will include recorded lectures and guided meditations\, reading assignments\, sutta study\, discussion forums\, audio conferences with the teacher\, and a library of resources. This course is suitable for all levels of experience. \nOvercoming Obstacles to Concentration is the first in a series on cultivating concentration\, and is a pre-requisite for participation in successive courses. Additional courses in this series will include Cultivating the Jhana Factors\, Deepening Concentration\, and Jhanas as the Basis for Insight. \nFor more information and registration details visit BodhiCourses.org
