Description
About the course
Stress and worry undermining your peace?
A certain degree of stress is normal. However sometimes worry and stress become a strong habit and this can really undermine our confidence and peace of mind.
Stress develops when there is a mismatch between what we expect and what actually arises – we feel out of control. Worry is useless and prevents us from enjoying our life.
By learning to develop a different perspective on life, you can learn to cultivate sources of strength and happiness from within your own mind.
By doing this you will be better equipped to deal with life’s challenges and can actually find ourselves growing through them.
On this 4 week course, Gen Kelsang Leksang will share these special ways of thinking and meditations that will help you to let go of stress and worry.
On this course you will learn:
- How to develop inner strength
- Develop a fresh perspective on life
- How to calm your mind in times of worry
- How to increase your resilience and happiness
If you’d like to learn how to do this, join us for our upcoming 4 week meditation course taking place in Birmingham, Solihull, Sutton Coldfield, Wolverhampton and Stirchley. This course is also available online to members.
This course will be great for beginners as well as those with experience.
