R.A.I.N. is a beautiful self compassion practice. This Mindfulness technique is wonderful in helping overwhelming emotions, thoughts, and experiences. It helps us learn how to nurture the parts of us that are suffering. RAIN is an easy acronym that stands for four steps: Recognize what is going on; Allow the experience to be there, just as it is; Investigate with interest and care; and Nurture with self-compassion.  This is a 60 minute workshop with a guided practice and time for Q&A. Open to all levels and beginners welcome!  This is the second of three weekly virtual meditations classes led by Amy Rutledge this month.

About Amy Rutledge - Amy Rutledge came to the study of meditation as a path toward personal healing after struggles with the effects of Lyme Disease as well as depression and anxiety and found that it helped her in ways when many other approaches failed. This led her to training as a Mindful Meditation Teacher at the Nalanda Institute for Contemplative Science in Manhattan.  She has taught classes and led meditation exercises for a wide range of business and cultural institutions, from IBM, NACTO, and Jet.com (Walmart) to the Girl Scouts of America and the public institutions such as the Los Angeles and Jersey City Public Libraries.

Ms. Rutledge brings to her classes and workshops a graciousness for the second chance that mediation has given her and a passionate desire to aid others with their suffering as she has similarly been aided. She has an expertise in Loving-Kindness/Metta meditation and skills in leading meditation toward mindfulness, self-healing, self-worth and creative visualization. In addition to her skills with mindfulness and meditation, she has significant experience in the arts as an actress and producer, as well as experience as a ceramicist and owner at RoughWare.  To start meditating with Amy now visit: meditatewithamy.com.
