SUMMARY:Sangha SRQ - Buddhist Oriented Recovery Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Refuge Recovery is a practice\, a process\, a set of tools\, a treatment\, and a path to healing addiction and the suffering caused by addiction. The main inspiration and guiding philosophy for the Refuge Recovery program are the teachings of Siddhartha (Sid) Gautama\, a man who lived in India twenty-five hundred years ago. Sid was a radical psychologist and a spiritual revolutionary. Through his own efforts and practices he came to understand why human beings experience and cause so much suffering. He referred to the root cause of suffering as “uncontrollable thirst or repetitive craving.” This “thirst” tends to arise in relation to pleasure\, but it may also arise as a craving for unpleasant experiences to go away\, or as an addiction to people\, places\, things\, or experiences. This is the same thirst of the alcoholic\, the same craving as the addict\, and the same attachment as the codependent. \nEventually\, Sid came to understand and experience a way of living that ended all forms of suffering. He did this through a practice and process that includes meditation\, wise actions\, and compassion. After freeing himself from the suffering caused by craving\, he spent the rest of his life teaching others how to live a life of well-being and freedom\, a life free from suffering. \nSid became known as the Buddha\, and his teachings became known as Buddhism. The Refuge Recovery program has adapted the core teachings of the Buddha as a treatment of addiction. \nFor more information on this meeting\, email: rr-srq@mail.com

SUMMARY:The Story of Your Life. A New Directed Memoir and Autobiography Writing Class.
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays\, 2:00 – 4:00 pm\nAug. 1st ~ Oct. 3rd \n~ Cost: $120 for the series or you can join anytime during the series at a pro-rated price.\nUnity of Sarasota\, 3023 Proctor Rd. \nHello\, my name is David Bradshaw of My Idea Factory. Did you know 80% of adults say they want to write a book\, but only 1% do? As a writer\, editor and publisher for 30 years\, I can help you create a series of memoirs to assemble your own autobiography.\nWhy? Two reasons: 1) because writing the story of your life will be transformational for you —\nand 2) you are creating a cherished keepsake for your loved ones and posterity.\nIn class you’ll be prompted to write about one aspect of your life at a time\, for at least two hours a\nweek. The goal is to compile a series of memoirs covering your lifetime into your autobiography.\nDon’t wait! Now is a great opportunity to start writing your life review. Although challenging\, it is\nsimplified with the support of small group of fellow writers. \nEach week a new topic will be covered:\n1. Your major life branching points\n2. Your family and closest relationships\n3. Your relationship and views on money\n4. Your major life work or career\n5. Your health and physical identity\n6. Your spiritual life and values\n7. Your experiences and ideas about death\n8. Your future goals and aspirations \nIn between classes\, students will be asked to write two typed pages of text related to the weekly\ntheme. Attendees will be provided with prompting questions to stimulate thinking. During each\nsession\, participants will read their two pages in a small group (3-5 people) and receive encouraging\,\nsupportive feedback from the other participants\, who will also read their work and receive feedback. \nJoin me starting Tuesday\, August 1st\,  2-4pm. Create the gift of a lifetime\, your\nlifetime! \nBecause if you don’t tell your life story\, no one else will! Bring a friend. \n(Join class at any time)

SUMMARY:The Story of Your Life. A New Directed Memoir and Autobiography Writing Class.
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays\, 2:00 – 4:00 pm\nAug. 1st ~ Oct. 3rd \n~ Cost: $120 for the series or you can join anytime during the series at a pro-rated price.\nUnity of Sarasota\, 3023 Proctor Rd. \nHello\, my name is David Bradshaw of My Idea Factory. Did you know 80% of adults say they want to write a book\, but only 1% do? As a writer\, editor and publisher for 30 years\, I can help you create a series of memoirs to assemble your own autobiography.\nWhy? Two reasons: 1) because writing the story of your life will be transformational for you —\nand 2) you are creating a cherished keepsake for your loved ones and posterity.\nIn class you’ll be prompted to write about one aspect of your life at a time\, for at least two hours a\nweek. The goal is to compile a series of memoirs covering your lifetime into your autobiography.\nDon’t wait! Now is a great opportunity to start writing your life review. Although challenging\, it is\nsimplified with the support of small group of fellow writers. \nEach week a new topic will be covered:\n1. Your major life branching points\n2. Your family and closest relationships\n3. Your relationship and views on money\n4. Your major life work or career\n5. Your health and physical identity\n6. Your spiritual life and values\n7. Your experiences and ideas about death\n8. Your future goals and aspirations \nIn between classes\, students will be asked to write two typed pages of text related to the weekly\ntheme. Attendees will be provided with prompting questions to stimulate thinking. During each\nsession\, participants will read their two pages in a small group (3-5 people) and receive encouraging\,\nsupportive feedback from the other participants\, who will also read their work and receive feedback. \nJoin me starting Tuesday\, August 1st\,  2-4pm. Create the gift of a lifetime\, your\nlifetime! \nBecause if you don’t tell your life story\, no one else will! Bring a friend. \n(Join class at any time)

SUMMARY:Sangha SRQ - Buddhist Oriented Recovery Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Refuge Recovery is a practice\, a process\, a set of tools\, a treatment\, and a path to healing addiction and the suffering caused by addiction. The main inspiration and guiding philosophy for the Refuge Recovery program are the teachings of Siddhartha (Sid) Gautama\, a man who lived in India twenty-five hundred years ago. Sid was a radical psychologist and a spiritual revolutionary. Through his own efforts and practices he came to understand why human beings experience and cause so much suffering. He referred to the root cause of suffering as “uncontrollable thirst or repetitive craving.” This “thirst” tends to arise in relation to pleasure\, but it may also arise as a craving for unpleasant experiences to go away\, or as an addiction to people\, places\, things\, or experiences. This is the same thirst of the alcoholic\, the same craving as the addict\, and the same attachment as the codependent. \nEventually\, Sid came to understand and experience a way of living that ended all forms of suffering. He did this through a practice and process that includes meditation\, wise actions\, and compassion. After freeing himself from the suffering caused by craving\, he spent the rest of his life teaching others how to live a life of well-being and freedom\, a life free from suffering. \nSid became known as the Buddha\, and his teachings became known as Buddhism. The Refuge Recovery program has adapted the core teachings of the Buddha as a treatment of addiction. \nFor more information on this meeting\, email: rr-srq@mail.com
