SUMMARY:Meditations for a Meaningful Life
DESCRIPTION:The Stages of the Path to Enlightenment\, or “Lamrim”\, is a sophisticated\, practical presentation of Buddhist teachings\, which is designed to help us improve and grow in a deliberate and joyful way. Over 1000 years ago the Buddhist sage Atisha consolidated the 84\,000 teachings of Buddha into the Lamrim\, which  are 21 essential meditations\, revolutionizing the practice of Buddha’s teachings. Since then\, Lamrim has flourished throughout the world and it perfectly fits within our modern lifestyle. It is simple\, scientific\, and incredibly potent. \nThe Lamrim takes us step-by-step through carefully crafted meditations so we can purposefully nourish the qualities in our mind that lead to our happiness and reduce our painful thoughts and feelings. \nIn this class\, we will go one-by-one through the Lamrim\, drawing out how we can personally use these meditations and create our own meditation practice. There will be a special emphasis on the art of meditation and how to really make our meditations effective. \nJoin us afterwards for lunch in our World Peace Cafe! Lunch is available for purchase at check in and will be served after the class.

SUMMARY:11 Happiness Habits
DESCRIPTION:In general we all want to be authentically happy\, to be of benefit to others\, and to find a way to feel fearless throughout our life and when our life is over. These three wishes can be fulfilled only through inner development or training our mind. This basically means reducing painful ways of thinking and replacing them with positive mental attitudes. It is so important to learn how to nourish our good heart and develop the power to be positive and confident all the time regardless of life’s difficulties.   \nIn this series we will explore 11 mental habits that give us positive energy\, harmony in our relationships and protection from fear throughout our life!

SUMMARY:Meditations for a Meaningful Life
DESCRIPTION:The Stages of the Path to Enlightenment\, or “Lamrim”\, is a sophisticated\, practical presentation of Buddhist teachings\, which is designed to help us improve and grow in a deliberate and joyful way. Over 1000 years ago the Buddhist sage Atisha consolidated the 84\,000 teachings of Buddha into the Lamrim\, which  are 21 essential meditations\, revolutionizing the practice of Buddha’s teachings. Since then\, Lamrim has flourished throughout the world and it perfectly fits within our modern lifestyle. It is simple\, scientific\, and incredibly potent. \nThe Lamrim takes us step-by-step through carefully crafted meditations so we can purposefully nourish the qualities in our mind that lead to our happiness and reduce our painful thoughts and feelings. \nIn this class\, we will go one-by-one through the Lamrim\, drawing out how we can personally use these meditations and create our own meditation practice. There will be a special emphasis on the art of meditation and how to really make our meditations effective. \nJoin us afterwards for lunch in our World Peace Cafe! Lunch is available for purchase at check in and will be served after the class.
