SUMMARY:Choosing Love in Perilous Times: Daylong Retreat with Tara Brach & Jonathan Foust [In-Person or Online]
DESCRIPTION: \nChoosing Love in Perilous Times\nA Daylong Retreat with Tara Brach & Jonathan Foust\nSunday\, December 7th | 9:30 AM – 4:30 PM (ET)\nIn-Person or OnlineOnline Spots Still Available!__________\nWe hope you’ll join us for this special daylong gathering: Choosing Love in Perilous Times. The program takes place on December 7th\, 2025 and will be available both in-person (in Washington DC) and via livestream! \nRegister Here to Reserve Your Spot \nWe are living in shadow times marked by violence\, injustice\, climate collapse and growing division. Many find that with each new crisis they are almost surprised not to be more disturbed. Rather\, the response is often anxiety\, overwhelm or numbness. Some part of us knows: we’re in a collective trance. \nIt is natural and healthy to feel outrage\, fear and heartbreak. When met with presence\, though\, these very emotions become gateways to new possibilities — they awaken you to a more fierce and tender love for life. \nStaying connected to that love takes intention. It means returning again and again to your direct\, embodied experience. It means choosing love — not as a sentiment\, but as a path of inner freedom and outward transformation. \nIn this daylong gathering\, we’ll explore meditation\, relational practices\, movement\, and the healing power of community. Together\, we’ll strengthen our capacity to stay awake\, open-hearted and engaged in a way that serves our precious\, hurting world. \nRegister Here to Reserve Your Spot \nDate:   December 7th\, 2025 \nTime:   9:30 AM – 4:30 PM (Eastern Time) \nLocation:  Catholic University of America – Pryzbyla Center | 620 Michigan Ave NE | Washington\, DC  20064Program Cost: Tara and Jonathan are deeply committed to making these invaluable teachings as widely accessible  as possible\, particularly to members of underserved and marginalized communities.  There are several tuition levels for this event\, please choose the one that feels right for you: \n\n$200 – Benefactor – When you choose this tuition level\,  your extra contribution helps us to provide financial assistance to those who might not otherwise be able to attend.\n$165 – General Admission – This tuition level covers the cost of the program\, staff and dana for the teachers.\n$115 – Financial Need Discount – This tuition level is for those who are experiencing  financial hardship and are unable to afford the general admission rate for the program.\n$95 – Livestream Only – Participate in the daylong workshop from wherever you are via Zoom. **Please note that a recording of the event is not included with this registration\, however is available as a separate purchase.\n$45 – Recording Only – You will receive online access to the event recording approximately one week after the end of the live workshop.
