Sundays | 10:30 – 11:45am | May 5-26
with Modern Buddhism Teacher Kadam Sharon Lovich
Many of our problems arise because we become unhappy when we meet with challenges or difficulties. If instead we could learn to respond to those difficulties differently and instead keep a peaceful mind, we would find that most of our problems will quickly change. Each week we will explore time tested methods for solving inner problems. Includes guided meditation, a talk and time for discussion.
May 5 ~ Developing Inner Peace
May 12 ~ Forgiving Others
May 19 ~ Seeing Kindness
May 26 ~ Best Method for Solving inner Problems
Sundays | 10:30 – 11:45am | June 2-30
with Modern Buddhism Teacher Kadam Sharon Lovich
Unless you’re already an enlightened being, you have at least one or two relationships in your life that could be a little better. Maybe it’s a relationship with a family member, significant other, or ex. Maybe it’s a relationship at work. Wherever difficult relationships occur in our life, stress, irritation, unhappiness, and disappointment are quick to follow.
During this series, we’ll explore what happens to make a relationship go sour and how to improve it. While we may never be able to change the other person, we can certainly change our own mind, leading us to a greater peace within that challenging relationship.
June 2 ~ The blame game
June 9 ~ Getting our way
June 16 ~ Faults?! What faults?
June 23 ~ Taking down the inner bully
June 30 ~ The peace of humility
