Ep 89 ~ How Do We Keep Going?

The practice of taking refuge is open to anyone, and helps orient us in chaotic times. Join Christie, Jaya, and other members of Deep South Dharma at our Saturday Morning Practice Group at 10-11am CENTRAL time ONLINE. Christie also offers Midweek Meditation via Zoom on Wednesdays, 1130a-12noon Central time.
