This accomplished Buddhist teacher keeps unfolding the riches of meditation, which she characterizes as "the art of knowing how to begin again." From the foundational practices of mindfulness and lovingkindness, she shows us how to pay attention to our world, express our compassion, break bad habits, recover from disappointments, and find more balance in our lives. She often emphasizes the little virtues, which she puts under the thematic umbrella of kindness.
"Practicing Spirituality with Sharon Salzberg" is a 40-part e-course led by Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat. Each day you will receive an email with a short selection from one of Salzberg's books and a suggestion for how you can practice the concept during the day.
The emails discuss how to apply her teachings on lovingkindness, compassion, generosity, equanimity, peace, and love, as well as some of the more subversive spiritual activities of the heart, such as rejoicing in another's happiness and being compassionate toward those who cause pain. Several cover Salzberg's creative interpretations of faith, a spiritual practice not often dealt with by Buddhists.

The Liberating Promise of Mindfulness
Available On-Demand
(4 CEHs for Chaplains available.)
No doubt you have heard of mindfulness. Visit any bookstore and you'll see books with that word in the title — mindful parenting, mindful gardening, mindful living, mindful management, mindful eating, and even mindful sex. There are mindfulness programs in hospitals, schools, and businesses. But what exactly is mindfulness?
Mindfulness is a classical Buddhist practice that can dramatically enhance the way we live in the twenty-first century. It is needed now more than ever in our busy and often stressful daily lives because it offers us peace of mind no matter where we are or what we are doing. Mindfulness is learned and practiced not just in quiet meditation sessions, but also — perhaps even more so — when we are with our families and friends, and as we go about our day at work, in the grocery store, and even on the highway and stuck in traffic.
Sylvia Boorstein, one of the world's most esteemed teachers of Buddhist wisdom and practice, knows the value of this practice from personal experience and from the comments of her students during years of teaching at retreats and conferences. "Mindfulness is the balanced, ongoing attention to what is happening (physically and mentally), including the mind’s perceptions and reactions," she says. "I chose the word 'liberating' to name this retreat because the word carries with it the sense of newly acquired freedom. I used the word 'promise' because I want to include the truth that liberation requires work, that potential becomes fact through personal effort. Mindfulness is dedicated moment-to-moment clarity.' And with it comes something more. Sylvia explains:
"What the Buddha promised — and this is what is unique, and absolutely thrilling to me — is that human beings like himself, and like us, can change the habits of our mind by paying attention to these habits. And not just change our thoughts and views. We can actually change the way we process our thoughts and our views. We can become free of identities that are constricting and views that hold happiness hostage. We can be authentically and kindly wise."
Taking on the practice of mindfulness does not require distancing from life experience. Quite the contrary. Another promise of mindfulness is a greater appreciation of the events and encounters in our daily lives. We learn how to live an engaged life in this increasingly complex world with a mind and a heart that is eager to respond with clarity and compassion.

Lovingkindness

Sylvia Boorstein is one of the world's most esteemed teachers of Buddhist wisdom and practice. In this exclusive online retreat, she offers a summation of her years as a preeminent teacher of lovingkindness.
Lovingkindness is called metta in Pali, the original language of the Buddha. Metta is a derivative of the word for "friend."
"Although metta has often be translated into English as 'lovingkindness,' " Sylvia says, "I like thinking of it as a friendliness practice, the cultivation of a mind that is so saturated with good will that it responds uniformly to all situations with benevolence."
Few things in life are more important than benevolence, not only toward others but also toward ourselves. And this is where this Lovingkindness retreat begins. "The first recipient of wishes of my good will needs to be me," Sylvia reminds us. "We need to be relaxed from the mind’s alarmed state in order to pass it on."
The retreat, delivered by email, then leads us through a series of lessons and meditation practices that show us how to have an abiding good will toward friends, family members, colleagues, people we see on the street and in stores, and even those whom Sylvia calls "difficult people" — people who have hurt us or simply rub us the wrong way.
"Metta is not about erasing emotional responses," Sylvia says. "I’m sure I have a wider palette of emotional responses available to me now that I did 30 years ago when I began this practice. I think we all want to be able to love profoundly and to respond to and engage fully with people and situations we find problematic on behalf of a more peaceful and just world. I’m positive we do that best when our minds are at ease and unconfused."
This Lovingkindness Online Retreat will help you live with ease and less confusion. It offers a a well-rounded and expansive view of a universal human desire to love and to love well.
The retreat consists of 12 emails that offer Sylvia’s personal experiences and insights, along with ancient, timeless recitations that are said to help develop feelings of good will. Each includes a link to a short audio component hat has Sylvia’s calm yet lively voice reviewing the day’s practices. Sylvia Boorstein's inimitable teaching style is chock-full of timeless wisdom woven into her own, unique insights, and delightful stories.

A Blessed Life
Available On-Demand
One of Buddhism’s paths to awakening is called the “perfections,” or paramitas. These consist of ten guiding principles for creating a blessed life. These values guide you on a path that is personally and communally fulfilling. Most importantly, they are relevant to how you live each day of your life.
In this e-course, course leader Donald Altman broadens these Buddhist teachings to include wisdom from other wisdom traditions — since all the traditions embrace them. When he thinks of working with the ten enlightened principles, he is reminded of a favorite quote from Sufi mystic Inayat Khan, who said, "Freedom is not the path to freedom; discipline is the path to freedom."
When you sign up for this e-course, you receive 12 detailed emails, delivered on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, with practices, quotes, and inspirations. Each email focuses on practicing a guiding principle:
