Peaceful Mind, Happy Life
A Four-Week Series of Buddhist Meditation and Practical Wisdom
What if a happier life depends less on changing what is happening around us and more on changing the way we experience it?
Buddha taught that our experience of life is deeply connected to our state of mind. By learning to understand our mind, we can gradually let go of unhelpful ways of thinking and develop the positive qualities that naturally lead to greater peace, happiness and resilience.
In this four-week series, we will explore practical teachings and meditations that we can use in everyday life. By trying these methods for ourselves, we can discover how changing our mind can change our experience. Even life’s difficulties can become opportunities for personal and spiritual growth.
September 7: The Mind Creates Your Experience
September 14: Everything Can Change
September 21: Becoming the Person You Want to Be
September 28: Transforming Daily Difficulties
