“I’ve seen a look in dogs’ eyes … and I am convinced that dogs think humans are nuts.” – John Steinbeck
Dogtober is upon is and it's a solid time to reflect on who, really, is training who? Yes we care for and love our dogs, but they also teach us about being present for life (squirrel!), appreciating the small moments, and loving ourselves and the world despite it all.
Join Alex and co-teacher Walnut (above ) for four cozy Monday night sessions in October to mindfully reflect on what our dogs teach us. These sessions will feature mindfulness instruction and practices, group sharing with fellow dog lovers, and the stars of the show, dogs.
You'll leave this series, dog willing, with an appreciation of how your dog can be your guru for living life to its fullest and finding peace and joy amidst it all. Ruff! Sessions will be at 8-9pm EST on Zoom to allow pups to be in their home environment and for y'all to cozy up together.
And to give back to these pups, 25% of ticket sales will benefit The Little Black Dog Rescue Group, and awesome DC-based rescue group
Dates:
• Monday October 2: "Sit" Being present for life
• Tuesday October 10 : "Who's happy to see you?!" Gratitude
• Monday October 16: "Does your dog care who you replied all to?" Self-compassion
• Monday October 23: "Mud puddle, yay!" Joy
“All his life he tried to be a good person. Many times, however, he failed. For after all, he was only human. He wasn’t a dog.” – Charles Schulz
This is the second annual Dogtober -- what folks said about last year's class:
"This class helped me connect with myself, and my dog, on a deeper level, instilling daily rhythms that I can take with me into the future. "
"This class helped me appreciate my dog at a deeper level, and also helped me integrate mindfulness into my everyday life."
"I love that now when I spend time with my dog, I take the time to remember the lessons she teaches me about mindfulness, and I feel like I am able to be more present with her!"
"Woof, woof, woof!"
