In meditation we uncover the beautiful qualities of our mind. Our patience. Our kindness. Our gratitude. Our empathy. Our inner peace. Our love. With meditation, we first familiarize ourself with the process of uncovering these beautiful minds. The more we practice meditation, the more we shift our minds away from negative and painful states to positive and joyful ones. Through daily practice we learn how to rely on and take refuge in peaceful, positive minds.

Our world needs our meditation practice. Our world needs joy. An inspired meditation practice thrives on the mind of joy which in turns provides inspiration for ourselves and others. In this workshop we will explore this process of bringing joy to our meditation practice and to our world. All other beautiful minds will naturally arise from this process.

If you like the idea of meditation but have little experience or if you are a serious meditation practitioner but wonder why you can’t sustain a daily practice, this workshop is for you.
