Description
Let’s Practice Together: The Ground of Our Being
with Victoria Mausisa
Sunday, May 3rd from 10:00 - 11:30 am PT (Pacific Time)
Online via Zoom
About the Session:
In this session Victoria will guide us to connect with the ground of our being as we listen deeply to the medicine of Earth’s garden. Just as we may tend to soil, flowers and plants, we can attune to our own true nature and tend to the garden of our hearts. Can we hear nature’s voice? What wisdom is coming forth? Join us as we explore presence, solidity, and interbeing by listening to the call of the earth.
About the Series:
These times call for us to expand our individual and collective capacity to navigate uncertainty, instability, and complexity. By practicing deeply together, we strengthen our ability to meet these challenges with resilience and presence.
Throughout the year, we will gather one Sunday a month online as a community of curious practitioners to explore the timeless wisdom of the Buddhadharma and mindfulness/Insight meditation. In each session, we will cultivate presence, deepen our meditation practice, and engage in shared reflections and inquiry. Together, we cultivate a collective heart-mind-body—a living, interconnected field—spacious enough to hold and transform whatever life brings our way.
Let's Practice Together offers a space for meaningful dialogue—an opportunity to ask questions, explore personal and collective experiences, and learn from one another. We welcome sincere and committed practitioners of all levels and backgrounds to join us on this collective path of discovery and connection.
Sessions will be recorded and shared with all registrants. During the session, practitioners who don't wish to be recorded may offer their questions and reflections in the chat.

At Braided Wisdom, we strive to cultivate an online space that supports connection, presence, and collective care. While we invite participants to have their cameras on to help nurture a sense of community, we wholeheartedly honor that there are many reasons someone may choose otherwise.
