The Power of Your Emotional Intelligence
2026-08-16 10:30 | West Room and Zoom
Brian Sullivan
Emotions happen, all the time. Ignore them or stuff them down, and they may explode! Your emotional intelligence can be an infinite source of energy: use it with wisdom and compassion, and avoid explosions. Our collective emotional intelligence is an existing strength of this community – let us build on that strength!

————————————-
The UUCNH Meditation Group will explore the contemplative practice of meditation. Together we will learn and practice various types of meditation, including meditation on breath, mindfulness meditation, and loving-kindness meditation. Sessions will last between 45-60 minutes, 30 of which will consist of guided meditation, with the remaining time reserved for questions and discussion. Please join us; no registration required.
Meditation is an ancient contemplative practice that permeates cultural and religious boundaries, with roots in most faith traditions. It can also be a totally secular practice. While our group will primarily explore meditation practices that are prominent in the Buddhist tradition, these teachings will be applicable to individuals of all backgrounds and beliefs, aligning with our Unitarian Universalist principles of acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations.
To begin, we will use guided meditation recordings from the Insight Meditation Center, specifically their Introduction to Mindfulness series. Each recording provides context and basic instruction, with additional guidance throughout the session. A gentle bell will signal the conclusion of the meditation, after which we can take a few minutes to reflect and share our experiences. We may also incorporate a brief loving-kindness meditation at the beginning to help settle and gladden the mind, making it more conducive to mindfulness meditation. Our program will evolve over time, and we welcome feedback and suggestions.
Our group embraces this timeless spiritual practice to foster a deeper connection with ourselves and the world around us. Whether you seek insight, relaxation, or a sense of community sitting together in silence, we welcome you to join us on a journey of mindfulness, concentration, and compassion.

Finding Your Place in the Work of Justice
2026-08-09 10:30 | West Room and Zoom
Robyn Travers
In Deepa Iyer’s book Social Change Now: A Guide for Reflection and Connection, she reminds us that each of us has unique gifts to offer in the work of creating a more just and compassionate world.
In this interactive service, Robyn will introduce the ten roles people often play in social change movements and invite us to reflect on where we naturally fit. Together, we’ll explore how our gifts, lived experiences, and skills can help our congregation faithfully engage in the work of justice and make a meaningful difference in our community.
