Whether your altered state of consciousness results from psychedelics or meditating, we invite you to attend our free online integration circle

The notion of impermanence often seems overwhelming to people. Join me as I discuss how acceptance and appreciation of change with both mindfulness and compassion reveals gifts for our living each day fully and with joy.

Erika Rosenberg’s next free FACS Drop-In session will be held on Wednesday, August 2nd, 2023 from 9-10:30am Pacific Time. These 90 min sessions are akin to office hours, where people can drop in to Dr. Rosenberg’s Zoom “office” and ask coding questions, conceptual questions about FACS, have discussion, share ideas – whatever!

The compassionate person is moved by suffering in the world and feels motivated to do something to help alleviate it. Compassion meditation practices takes us to that point of feeling motivated to act, but how do we take it from there? What does it look like to bring compassion into tangible action that reduces suffering?

Join me online in this event sponsored by Psychedelic Sangha, NYC.

This event will take place on Zoom at 8 PM Eastern / 5 PM Pacific. Please register to receive event link.

Life is difficult always, but during pandemic our hearts are stretched to their limits by opposites — from the enormity of suffering to the glory of heroic kindness. On top of this, we have great uncertainty about what lies ahead.

In this 90-min virtual session, we will explore how the common humanity of shared grief and the cultivation of self-care can sustain you in these times of massive change in our lives and world. We will work with meditation, discussion and experiential exercises to explore how softening our hearts to our own pain and the pain of others can make us individually and collectively stronger than ever.

Verse & Vibe is a weekly online performance series that brings artists and poetry together in a musical conversation. Join us as we create art in the moment.

This episode of Verse & Vibe is inspired by kindness and compassion. Enjoy the words of Rumi and other authors read by Dr. Erika Rosenberg with musical guest Joe Kyle Jr. playing stand up bass.

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED FOR PUBLIC HEALTH REASONS. STAY TUNED FOR THE NEW DATE. Life experience can leave us fractured, but we do not have to fix everything that is broken to find ease. We can begin by allowing the various aspects of ourselves simply to be there, by learning to give ourselves a break.

Self-compassion is a gentle self-regard and commitment to self-care, which urges us to treat ourselves as we would a good friend. In this 2-hour session, we will work with meditation, discussion and other experiential exercises to explore self-compassion as a means for self-healing. We will focus on ways of regarding ourselves that accommodate all of who we are—what we don’t want to see as well as what we value about ourselves.

Compassion arises when we are confronted with suffering (in ourselves or others) and feel motivated to help end it. How do we explain the paradoxical truth that opening one’s heart to suffering helps us find happiness and peace? Join Erika Rosenberg, Ph.D. for a discussion of the nature of compassion, how we can grow our own compassion, and the ways in which compassionate connection can heal people, communities, and our planet.
