INNER COOL: The Art of Patient Acceptance

Staying calm when things go wrong

In situations of conflict, we tend to become angry easily. We even think anger will help us ‘win’ our battles, and we rely on it as if it were our trusted friend. The mind of anger, however, leaves a trail of broken relationships, lost opportunities, and painful feelings in its wake. In this course, we will learn skillful techniques to remain balanced, flexible and peaceful in the midst of difficult situations and conflicts, thereby overcoming our real enemy, the painful mind of anger itself. Please join us for a day of learning about the cool, spacious mind of patience, the direct opponent to the mind of anger.

This day course is taught by our resident teacher, Gen Kelsang Thekchen.

The day will include guided meditations, teachings, discussion and time for Q&A

It will also include a lovely vegetarian lunch and refreshments during the breaks
