Weekend Topics
May 7 - 8, 2022 | Mother's Day Weekend
Saturday 10am-1pm: Overcoming Anxiety
We need to learn what we can and cannot control. When we emphasize controlling our mind instead of just external things, we feel empowered. Anxiety principally occurs when we feel we cannot find happiness inside ourselves, and this can be worked on through training. ln this half-day workshop, we will explore how to accept the anxiety we are dealing with, and kindly work with ourselves and our mind to gradually reduce and eventually abandon it. In particular, we will see how we can use special, time-tested meditation techniques to accomplish this inner freedom.

Friday 6pm-8pm: Food for Thought
Saturday Workshop 10am-1pm: Love without Pain
Pure love can be trained in, and will only bring us happiness. Why do our relationships cause us pain? It is because we have a mind of uncontrolled desire, or attachment, instead of a mind of love. By distinguishing their differences, we will uncover a way to always have healthy, happy relationships. Learning to truly love without conditions will awaken our heart and our good nature. This course will also help us begin to heal suffering that has been caused by our uncontrolled desire in the past.
