Many of us live with chronic stress and dissatisfaction, finding it difficult to experience peace and ease on a daily basis.  Mindfulness meditation is a practice for reducing stress and increasing one's sense of well-being. These, and many other benefits, experienced by millions over the centuries, are now confirmed by modern science.

This class is designed for beginners, but is also appropriate for those wanting to establish a meditation practice.

Suffering is an undeniable part of the human condition.  We all experience it, but we don't understand it or know how to free ourselves from its grip.  We try various methods and techniques that help us feel better for a while, but inevitably we find ourselves snared once again -- often by the same issues.  How can we escape this circular pattern?  The teachings called The Four Noble Truths offer profound insights into our dilemma.  Practicing these insights leads to the end of suffering.

Opening the Heart is the path to well-being and happiness.  When we are caught in fear, self-absorption, and judgement, the heart feels constricted.  Freed of its fear, the heart naturally opens, and we begin to relate to ourself, to others, and to all life with love, compassion, joy, and wisdom.  The teachings and practices known as The Four Immeasureables are time-tested methods for cultivating fearlessness and allowing the full-flowering of our natural capacity to be in relationship.
