June Series

Giving Without Burnout

Tuesdays · 7-8:30pm with Kadam Kyle Davis

Giving to others can bring incredible joy to our lives but we need to do this wisely. Many find their efforts to help others sabotaged by guilt, shame and expectations. Others struggle with setting boundaries. Buddhist teachings on the art of giving and helping others can help solve quandaries around boundaries and expectations. We learn how to be there for others without attachment, and how to say no in a kind-hearted way.
