Connecting to our Communities for Inner Wellbeing
This online workshop with meditation instructor and Buddhist teacher Ondy Willson explored the theme of establishing connection to our multiple communities: online and local, spiritual, professional, and familial.
A sense of connection to these might be crucial for our sense wellbeing in the post-pandemic world, where many people are suffering from either loneliness and isolation or social anxiety — sometimes at the same time.
In exploring this theme, the workshop included meditation, analysis of experience, contemplation of the different ways of bridging the technological gap, and outlining a healthy strategy that could help us have deeper connections in the future.
