K1947-1: BUDDHIST PSYCHOLOGY AND PRACTICE IN EVERYDAY LIFE

Course 5B with Thay Phap An and Sister Song Nghiem

Meditation is a wonderful way to nourish inner clarity and decrease the destructive effects of stress. In order to re-establish our peace and stability, we will practice a number of different forms of still meditation, as well as meditative movements. We will use Buddhist psychology as a model to help us look deeply into our mental activities, to understand the roots of our confusion and to find a positive way of living our daily lives.

Mindfulness practice with others and with the support of our EIAB community will help participants to integrate meditation practice into their everyday lives.
