From the Cushion to the Streets

With Leslie Booker and Elaine Retholtz

Hosted by

New York Insight Meditation Center

From the Organizer:

There is a long history of folks using their spiritual practice as a foundation and catalyst for activism, and an equally long history of folks who realize that they need a spiritual practice to sustain their engagement. Marrying these two together is an art and practice that is both skillful and necessary. During this daylong retreat workshop on engaging with the world, there will be time to practice together, time to connect with others, and time to engage in reflective processes to help us understand how we can best show up at this moment in time.

New York Insight Meditation Center is the host of this event. Please contact them with any questions.

The Ecology of Enough

A Mindful Earth Gathering

June 26, 2025
Mindful Earth Refuge

This month, we turn toward the practice of enoughness; how to remember it, how to feel it, and how to live from it in a world that insists we are never quite enough. We live in a culture shaped by extraction. Our time, labour, attention, and even our healing journeys are often caught in a loop of more. But the Earth and the dharma remind us that life is made not only of effort but of ease…of doing and being.

No Mud, No Lotus
