In this four-part course, Theresa will share, from her direct experience, the Buddhist ways that she has alleviated some of the suffering from her own life. These include:
- Mindfulness: The state of awareness that prevents you forgetting yourself.
- Gratitude: The Buddha taught it is one of five rare treasures.
- Parable of the Arrows: We can avoid the second arrow of our mental suffering caused by the self-inflicted reaction to the first arrow.
- Parable of the Acrobats: We are interconnected, when looking after oneself one looks after others.
- Morality: Practicing morality is a protective shield against suffering.
- Kalyana Mitta: Having wise and virtuous friends is essential as they provide support, guidance and inspiration.
A big component of the course will also be an opportunity to learn and practice insight meditation, both sitting and walking.
There will also be time for Q&A and may be some feedback on an individual’s meditation practice. Both beginners and experienced participants are welcome.
