Monday Morning Meditation
8.00am MT on Zoom. Link below:
https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87031260066
Heather is re-starting Monday Morning Meditations on zoom, every Monday at 8:00-8:30am Mountain Time (10:00-10:30 Eastern Time), starting February 3rd through April 28th.
 
It’s simply an opportunity to come together at the beginning of each week to ground ourselves in community, and to meditate together.
I will usually share a musing and then guide us in to a 20 minute sit.
 
Arrive anytime from 7:45 MT to say hi to each other. I’ll close the zoom room at 8:03 so that we can start altogether.
 
There is no cost for this, but if you would like to make a donation to the
Aspen Chapel to support this kind of work, that would be really appreciated – click below.

Wisdom Mentoring

A program looking at the one-on-one discipline and dynamic of "Wisdom Mentoring".

This is a series of recordings that draws on the lives and writings of poet Rainer Maria Rilke and the young Etty Hillesum who died in Auschwitz, and unpacks some of the inherent dynamics of living with and for each other. Exploring how it’s in relationship, in community, that we truly grow in to our fuller selves.

Planning your Visit

Hi there!


unnamed (9)

We are Nicholas and Heather Vesey. 
We lead the services here at the Aspen Chapel most Sundays.
Have a look around our site. There are plenty of free courses to watch from our 'Wisdom from the Top of the World' page. Click here to go to it

If you are planning on a visit, here is some information as to what to expect:

When: We meet every Sunday at 9.30am for about an hour. If you cannot make it in person, you can live stream the event by clicking here.

Where: We are the chapel by the roundabout as you come into aspen. Specifically here.

What: We (Heather and Nicholas) come from a Christian Episcopal background, however our community draws from all the world’s wisdom traditions with the aim of learning together to live our lives more skillfully.

And there are local musicians from up and down the Roaring Fork Valley to play for us.

Every week we will focus on a topic within a theme.

GoodAt the moment we are looking at what the topic of 'How to be Good'.
As we work out how to respond to the time we are living through, the question 'How to be Good' has never been more relevant,
In this series we look at the concept of 'Goodness', and how to be it in our world.


There will also be prayer and meditation, generally led by Heather, and Nicholas will give a talk on the topic for the day.

Finally, there is an opportunity for discussion and feedback as we pass the microphone around for everyone to join in.

Kids? We also offer childcare with younger children being looked after and given creative ways to look at a topic for the day.

Coffee and Yummies. After the service there is a food and drink reception for everyone to get to know each other a bit more.
