Description

In these fraught times, expert mindfulness teacher Alison Cohen explores the power of names and the wisdom found in the second book of the Torah, Shemot (Exodus), which literally translates to "Names." She offers a beautiful, simple meditation practice: giving ourselves “permission to pause” to bring compassionate awareness to the “names” or identities we have unconsciously adopted or inherited, seeing these “names” for what they are — temporary labels that don't define who we truly are. Join Alison Cohen as she offers us the gift of pausing, being fully present, and reconnecting with the wisdom of our deepest, most authentic selves.
