SUMMARY:Online Event - Monthly - Journey You Own Meditation Gathering - JYO
DESCRIPTION:Create a shared\, supportive space to explore grounding practices. \nThe guided meditations happen every month and typically run 30-45 minutes. All are welcome to these very low-key sessions\, with videos on or off\, whatever feels most comfortable to you. No speaking is necessary unless you’d like to share at the end of the session. \nAttendees register once and can attend any of the monthly meditation dates. Don’t forget to add the dates to your calendar to ensure you don’t miss out on any sessions. \nAbout the Host \nJyothi Robertson is a student of meditation practice for 40+ years and trauma-sensitive grounding practices formally for the past three years. She was raised by parents who practice meditation and lead spiritual teachings for members of their Indian community. She began pursuing her own formal exploration of spirituality as an anthropology major at Princeton University and conducted fieldwork for her thesis while living at an ashram (spiritual center) in India in 1996. As a veterinarian\, she is interested in highlighting the spiritual connection between all living beings. \nJyothi has completed certifications in trauma-sensitive mindfulness\, advanced trauma-sensitive meditation\, deep listening\, DEI\, and since 2019\, has been receiving training in Buddhist meditation practices and philosophy. As a student learning meditation\, she is interested in exploring these practices with others in community. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://jyo.world/meditation-gathering/

SUMMARY:Online Event - Third Wednesdays - Shelter Med LIVE - UC Davis KSMP
DESCRIPTION:Shelter medicine bridges gaps in veterinary care access\, ensuring animals are sterilized\, vaccinated\, and have the medical treatment they need before going home to the people and communities who care for them.

Every third Wednesday\, join your UC Davis Koret Shelter Medicine Program host Dr. Jenn Bennett and special guests for real talk and real solutions. \nAsk questions (or send them in ahead of time). This isn’t a lecture—it’s a conversation for everyone who wants to talk shop about shelter medicine. Kick back and recharge with your colleagues in the middle of a long week. \nThis event has been approved for 1 hour of continuing education credit by CAWA and NACA. \nCan’t make it live? Register to receive the recording and resources after the event\, accessible through the UC Davis Koret Shelter Medicine Program Shelter Learniverse\, #ThanksToMaddie! \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.shelterlearniverse.com/events

SUMMARY:Online Event - Monthly - Journey You Own Meditation Gathering - JYO
DESCRIPTION:Create a shared\, supportive space to explore grounding practices. \nThe guided meditations happen every month and typically run 30-45 minutes. All are welcome to these very low-key sessions\, with videos on or off\, whatever feels most comfortable to you. No speaking is necessary unless you’d like to share at the end of the session. \nAttendees register once and can attend any of the monthly meditation dates. Don’t forget to add the dates to your calendar to ensure you don’t miss out on any sessions. \nAbout the Host \nJyothi Robertson is a student of meditation practice for 40+ years and trauma-sensitive grounding practices formally for the past three years. She was raised by parents who practice meditation and lead spiritual teachings for members of their Indian community. She began pursuing her own formal exploration of spirituality as an anthropology major at Princeton University and conducted fieldwork for her thesis while living at an ashram (spiritual center) in India in 1996. As a veterinarian\, she is interested in highlighting the spiritual connection between all living beings. \nJyothi has completed certifications in trauma-sensitive mindfulness\, advanced trauma-sensitive meditation\, deep listening\, DEI\, and since 2019\, has been receiving training in Buddhist meditation practices and philosophy. As a student learning meditation\, she is interested in exploring these practices with others in community. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://jyo.world/meditation-gathering/
