Do you sometimes find it difficult to manage stress and anxiety, or experience peace in a world of constant distractions? We will explore the foundational teachings on mindfulness in a 5-week course. The course will provide instructions for meditation to develop mindfulness while emphasizing application of these practices to challenges and problems in our daily lives.
In this four-month program we will be deepening our practice through studying and practicing with the teaching that liberated the Buddha: dependent arising (Paṭicca Samuppāda). This teaching helps us to clearly see: how does dukkha (unsatisfactoriness) arise, and how does dukkha cease, leading to happiness and freedom? We will learn practical ways to use the teaching on dependent arising in our day-to-day lives, as well as look at some of the deeper, potentially liberating, layers of this teaching.
Join Buddhist teachers devon and nico for an intimate evening exploring how ancient wisdom meets modern love. Drawing from their new book This Messy, Gorgeous Love: A Buddhist Guide to Lasting Partnership, they'll share practical insights on bringing mindfulness and compassion into the beautiful complexity of intimate relationships.
