Thursday Meditation Series

How to Create Healthy Relationships

The Power of Positive Connections

February 13 – March 20

Thursdays | 6 – 7:30 pm

Cost: $10 | Free for members
This class is live-streamed for members.

Relationships pervade our life. We are continually relating to others in our daily lives at many different levels, even when they are not physically present. Whether those relationships are positive and healthy or not depends completely on our state of mind.
In this series, we will learn how to improve all of our relationships through developing six basic states of mind or practices that are time tested and eventually lead to permanent inner peace and happiness.

Although it is most beneficial to attend the entire series, you can gain practical experience from attending an individual class as well. Classes include guided meditation, Buddha’s advice on how to apply these instructions, and time for paired discussion and questions.

Everyone is welcome.
