About this event - This Course will be held in-person only at The Philosophers House in Johnson City, TN
In today's culture of social comparison, it's common to become excessively self-critical, which undermines self-confidence and causes feelings of confusion and discouragement. Listening to and believing in the inner critic wreaks untold havoc: it damages relationships, impairs the ability to make spiritual progress, and prevents the realization of your full human potential.
Buddha taught practical and inspiring techniques for letting go of these old patterns and ways of thinking. By applying these methods, you tap into the intelligence that recognizes your own limitless capacity for courage, kindness and wisdom. Everybody Welcome.
Includes guided meditations, talks, time for Q&A and a tea break.
