Why you might want to consider attending this series:
We all have an enormous inner capacity to cultivate resilience, insight, behavioral changes and deepening equanimity.
We don’t need to seek hidden caves or climb high peaks to gain more expansive perspectives on life and its inevitable ups and downs,
and we don't need to spend endless hours on meditation cushions separated from the very challenges that trip us up.
We can learn to meet life, on life’s terms, with compassion, presence of mind, deeper insight and skillful actions. We can do all of the
above by intentionally inclining our attention and actions towards deepening mindfulness in everyday life.
This rich and engaging curriculum offers an array of home practices assignments for participants to do between sessions.
This series is available for schools , businesses, and community groups and can be modified to meet your specific needs.
