IN THE TEMPLE: Tuesdays at 7pm
Meditations for a Happy Life
When we have highs, meditation grounds us and brings us down to Earth. When we have lows, it helps us work with our emotions and find peace, regardless of what’s going on. It is not escapist or self-indulgent. Instead, it’s simply about inner freedom. This inner freedom lets us respond to our lives, challenges, and world realistically and wisely. Through this six-week series, we will see how to develop a meditation practice, use it to more wisely relate to our life, and create an unshakeable inner strength.
Feel welcome to attend the whole series for maximum benefit, or drop in to what works for you. Each class is stand-alone in nature. Everyone welcome.
