Satsang: Healing the Disease of Busyness

It has become the norm to fill our lives with so much activity that we hardly recognize how driven we are, how stressful our lives have become, and how our busy-ness affects us. In today’s culture, our sense of self-esteem is often so closely associated with what we accomplish that we sacrifice our well-being for creating an image of success.

In this Satsang, we will review a few practical tools for slowing down, relieving stress, and being present to what we are doing. We will discuss and initiate long-term strategies to set and maintain priorities in our lives, to make decisions that reflect what we truly value, and to respond skillfully to life’s challenges, maintaining our equilibrium.

Satsang, a special time for us to come together as a community. In Sanskrit, Sat means truth and Sangha means community. Satsang offers an opportunity to come together to share spiritual teachings. The philosophy of Integral Yoga is explored, often through an informal discussion. Although spiritual paths may diverge, the act of sharing spiritual teachings with others is inspiring and creates a solid foundation for continued practice.

People of all faiths are welcome.
