Mountain Cloud is excited to welcome Kailea Rose Loften and Kate Rose Weiner to our Zendo for a special Wisdom Wednesday titled, “Compassion in Crisis: A book talk on building disaster-resilient communities.”

The evening will feature meditation and then a talk by Kailea and Kate about their new book, Compassion in Crisis: Building Disaster-Resilient Communities.

How do we live in the age of disaster? In this updated and expanded guide to collective crisis preparedness, Kailea and Kate, organizers and coeditors for the book and magazine publisher Loam, share community-shaped strategies on how to practically navigate the challenges posed by overlapping catastrophes—be they environmental, economic, political, or otherwise. Help is here for our bodies, hearts, minds, and shared homes. By amplifying resources for resilience, the authors underscore preparedness as a constant, communal practice. 

These sessions are designed to enhance your practice and also provide an opportunity to connect with the local sangha community. This hybrid event is free and registration is not required. Please arrive five to ten minutes ahead of the scheduled time. 

Meditation begins at 5:30 pm MT, followed by the practice share and discussion at 6:00 pm MT
