Self-confidence and self-esteem are rare qualities and very few people possess these. As a result we experience many problems and miss many opportunities. Usually not because we lack good qualities but because we lack self-confidence.
In this series we will learn how to develop true and deep self-confidence.

Oct 13 ~ Steadfastness
Oct ~ 20 - Joy

Sundays | 10:30 – 11:45am | November 3-December 1
with Kadam Sharon
Anger is by nature a painful state of mind. Its power is corrosive to our mental health, our physical wellbeing and all our relationships. Learning to recognize, reduce and finally abandon this foe, that is masquerading as a ‘friend’ will free up tremendous stuck inner energy so that we can connect in a positive way to others, and stop creating problems for ourself. In this way we can experience a truly happy life. Includes guided meditation, a talk and time for discussion. Refreshments served after the class.
Nov 3 ~ The Corrosive Power of Anger
Nov 10 ~ The Power of Patience
Nov 17 - Learning to Accept Difficulty
Nov 24 ~ Using Wisdom to Prevent Anger
Dec 1 - Using Compassion to Prevent Anger
