SUMMARY:Radical Mindfulness: Why Transforming Fear of Death is Politically Vital book club
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in how the existential fear of death shapes society? Do you wonder how we can address injustice? Join our weekly online reading group\, Radical Mindfulness\, to explore how mindfulness can serve as a powerful tool for political transformation. Together\, we’ll build a supportive community of care and reflection. Whether you’re seeking connection\, inspiration\, or fresh perspectives\, this space offers an opportunity to learn and grow in solidarity. We meet via Zoom on Sundays. Recordings will be shared after each gathering. \n-Sundays 6:30 to 8pm ET beginning September 14th\n-Free to attend\n-Free PDF of the book from author\, James Rowe\n-Physical copy offered with a 30% discount from Routledge \nThis weekly reading and discussion of Radical Mindfulness will explore the causes of injustice and how to achieve social transformation. Drawing from scholarly literature\, the author suggests the existential fear of death is at the root of oppression\, and that meditation and ritual can be pathways to structural change. \nThis will be different from most book clubs. There is no homework; each week we pick up where we left off and read together. We will pause for questions\, reflections\, clarifications\, as ways to engage the material. We look forward to creating a community of both practice and curiosity. (We estimate 6 months of reading together!)

This 2-hour interactive gathering offers gentle guidance\, education\, and ritual practices to help navigate grief during this time of year. \nHosted by Wendy Kessler\, Grief Guide\, this is a time for us to come together and acknowledge that the holidays can present additional challenges for those who are grieving.

Whether practiced in community or privately\, this ritual can become a grounding tradition throughout the holidays and beyond. \nAll supplies are included\, and you’ll leave with a ritual candlescape\, handouts\, and practices you can return to at home. Feel free to bring-your-own special items that you’d like to include in your candlescape – a favorite container like a tray or basket\, trinkets and mementos to personalize your creation. \n💗 Come as you are\, with your grief\, your love\, and your memories.
