Self-confidence: Creating Inner Change with Meditation
Everybody wants to change aspects of themselves. We want to be less insecure, fearful, lazy, angry, depressed etc. We want to be more confident, courageous, happy, creative and so forth. We wish for more success, more harmony in our relationships, a more fulfilling life.
But we find it difficult actually to change ourselves and to bring about the changes we long for in our life. Instead, often we feel ourselves to be stuck in unhealthy and unhappy habits.
Buddha’s teachings on the Bodhisattva’s way of life give real meaning and purpose to our life — to everyone’s life — regardless of whether they are Buddhist or not. By practicing these meditations we gain the self-confidence and skill to bring positive change into our life.
These meditation classes consist of teachings, meditations, and time for questions. They are suitable for complete beginners and those with some experience. Everyone is welcome!
