SUMMARY:You Are Not Your Body with Jess Koffman
DESCRIPTION:Rather than listening talks about what you really are\, rather than theories or ideas to believe about what you really are\, rather than merely resonate temporarily with what sounds true to you\, let’s do the far more effective work of examining the body\, element by element\, and see that there is no person in it. Join us as Jess takes us through a 35-40 minute contemplation of the truth regarding physicality. \nThis meditation will be the free portion of Jess’ meditation day\, with 4 other meditations including Metta and mindful awakening.  To join the whole day\, for more info\, or to get emailed about Jess’ classes\, email jesskoffman@hotmail.com.
