Cost: $25 ~ Free of charge for silver members & above
These are anxious times. We just can’t seem to stop worrying – about our family, our finances, world events and a dizzying array of perceived threats to our wellbeing. We try to suppress the discomfort and uncertainty, but remain restless, on edge and unable to relax.
Buddhist teachings offer practical, effective methods to help us let go of this anxiety. Kelsang Suma will explore how we can cultivate mindfulness, focusing on special ways of thinking and skilful meditation practices that can stop the mind from spinning out of control and maintain an authentic inner peace and contentment.
This half-day course will include practical advice and guided meditations to gain inner experience of methods to let go of fear and anxieties. Everyone is welcome.
Cost: $25, free for Silver, Gold & Platinum members
