Filmed in a rural county in Utah where most people are skeptical about climate change, each short episode looks at how different beliefs form, with the goal of having productive conversations focused on difficult topics.

Ben Stillerman, producer/director of True False Hot Cold, will join in the facilitated discussions between episodes, offering additional context.

Sometimes it might feel as if elements of our life are out of control. We can be intimidated by changing circumstances, feeling that there’s nothing we can do to change a situation. Many people have found that meditation can turn those thoughts around. These monthly meditation classes are designed to help you discover the power of meditation to positively transform your life.

Each class has two guided meditations, a short chanted prayer, an exploration of the topic for that day, and insight on how meditation can become a part of daily life. Each class is self contained. Everyone is welcome.
