Why We Meditate

About the Class

We all experience negative emotions from time to time, but in a world with as much pressure as ours, it's easy for these emotions to become overwhelming and destructive. There's only so much we can do to eradicate the chaos and hardships that wash over us, but we can work on the state of mind with which we face them. As proven by time and science, the key to the nuturing and strengthening of our inner selves lies in the practice of meditation. Whether you're an experienced meditator, new to the practice, or even a meditation skeptic, it's time to embark on a journey to understand and embrace meditation as you never have before. By blending Eastern tradition with Western science, this series is inspired by the work of Daniel Goleman, acclaimed psychologist and Tibetan meditation teacher Tsoknyi Rinpoche. With accessible and eye-opening strategies, you will be able to break free from negative patterns of thought and behavior and radically embody your very being. This is a donation-based class. Everyone is welcomed.
