We are living through a time of immense uncertainty, suffering, and moral challenge. This moment asks something of each of us. More than our good intentions, it asks us to steady our vision, strengthen and soften the heart, and find the courage to respond with love. Author and meditation teacher Oren Jay Sofer offers a pragmatic approach to contemplative practice, integrating decades of training in early Buddhist meditation with Nonviolent Communication and Somatics.
