Sunday Afternoon Public Programs
November 13, 3:00 pm  •  Presented by Judith Sugg, Ph.D.

Almost all of us struggle with letting go of negatives in our life, whether they show up as resentment, disappointment, anger, sadness, or fear. As seekers, many of us feel bad or guilty when our thoughts are less than kind, and behaviors are less than our ideal. The Yoga Sutras teaches about personal mind-traps, the noise in our head, but it also talks about the human condition — the problems and identity confusion common to all humans. This talk looks at the art and some of the tools of letting go, putting negativity into a spiritual perspective, and how all of this supports human evolution.

Judith Sugg is interested in the intersection of psychology and yoga and meditation. She has been teaching hatha yoga and meditation for over 20 years. In her dissertation, she compared the Yoga Sutras and Sankhya Karikas from a western psychological perspective. She is a licensed counselor, trainer, and adjunct instructor in psychology. Judy is a long-time member of the Theosophical Society.
