Class Topics

What to do When Things Go Wrong | Sept - Oct

Course Description

What’s wrong with things going wrong?
Misfortune, uncertainty and conflict are entirely normal, they are to be expected at some point in all of our lives. Since difficult circumstances are inevitable it is good to explore why we dread and inwardly reject them when they arise?
When we look back at hardships and challenges that we have
experienced in the past we can come to regard them as a training,
conditions that made us the better, more resilient and kinder person that we are today.
Since adverse conditions are inevitable & even useful can we not learn to welcome them, in real-time, as opportunities for growth? It is understood by meditators of the past and present that the ability to re-frame adverse conditions in this way leads to a deep inner calm and a mental resilience that cannot be disturbed by anything!
