Day-Long Workshop: Meeting the Emotions with Mindfulness

Sun, 5/19/2013, 10:00am - 5:00pm

From the Tibetan Buddhist view, the emotions are workable, but we don't know how to meet them properly. Join us for this day-long workshop, in which we will explore the Buddhist understanding of emotions and practice mindfulness exercises designed to work with them.

The workshop includes lecture, Q&A, discussion, and meditation techniques to deal with powerful emotions such as anger, passion, and fear.
