About this event - This Course will be held in-person only at The Philosophers House in Johnson City, TN
Everyone experiences the pain associated with craving and attachment, and many people suffer from some type of addiction.
Through exploring Buddha’s profound teachings and meditations we can learn how to overcome compulsive ways of thinking and acting that compel us to seek satisfaction from deceptive sources.
Whether you struggle with food, intoxicants, social media, relationships, or any form of addictive behavior, this retreat will help you gain insight into these pervasive and painful mental habits. Through deepening our understanding and experience of Buddha’s timeless wisdom, we can gradually transform these uncomfortable minds into the path of spiritual development.
Everyone Welcome. Includes guided meditation, talks, Q&A and a tea break.

Jill has been practicing Buddhism since 2006 when she began attending classes at KMCNYC in Manhattan. She moved to Knoxville TN in 2018 and found the Je Tsongkhapa Kadampa Buddhist Center during the pandemic. She enrolled in the foundation program and is very excited to be a part of the Je Tsongkhapa Sangha! Jill is a social worker, mother of two and an occasional singer-songwriter. She is also our Knoxville Branch Teacher.
