Classes & Sitting Groups

Portland:

Freedom through Meditation/Awareness Practice

Caverly teaches mediation and offers Awareness Practice at Shakti House. This ongoing class focuses on meditation skills and practices that assist in deepening your experience of the chakra system. Specifically, we will learn how to take what we experience ‘on the cushion’ into our everyday lives. Each class consists of a short period of guided meditation followed by a facilitated group discussion that is interactive and personal, though there is no requirement to speak. In this class, you will learn to see how suffering is created in your life and gain tools to let those processes go. The class is open to all and can be joined at any time. No experience required – all welcome.

Sacramento:

One House of Peace holds a weekly practice period at Simple Human Studios that includes sitting and walking meditation as well as chakra exercises. The meditations are guided by seasoned One House of Peace practitioners and the group is open to all. Periods of practice are offered in the context of an ‘Environment of Stillness’ in which practitioners are invited and supported to turn their focus inward and receive the gift of their own attention. When speaking is necessary, whispering is encouraged. No meditation experience is required to attend. Suggested minimum donation: $5.

When Caverly is in Sacramento (quarterly) the practice period is complemented by an in-depth group discussion. Caverly facilitates these discussions, which are interactive and personal (though there is no requirement to speak). The teachings of the practice come forward within these talks, which bring awareness to the process of suffering and focus on learning ways to move beyond. Suggested minimum donation for these events: $12.

One House of Peace also offers regular Awareness Practice Workshops at Simple Human Studios in Sacramento.

Caverly instructs in a down to earth, compassionate (and often humorous) way that really allows us to shed light on the habitual patterns of our mind … or sometimes just what’s going on for us that day. The discussions are the key — they allow you to ask the questions that arise as you meditate or get help with the difficulties that you encounter when you try. I’ve had so many profound insights simply by airing those observations and getting feedback from a highly trained awareness practitioner. This class literally has been the reason my practice has advanced to a whole new level. She’s an expert at what she does!
