Joy in Every Moment

This class is offered in person only

$10 per class, free for supporting members

In our fast paced, stressed out, increasingly chaotic world, it’s easy to feel distracted, blah, dull or even depressed. We strive towards what we’re told is going to make us happy, but no matter how hard we try, somehow we never get there. What’s going on? Why is it so hard? Is it even possible to be authentically happy? In this series, through talks, guided meditations and Q&A, Adrienne will explore the Buddhist perspective that for each and every one of us, happiness and authentic joy are indeed possible. And how, through transforming our perspective with wisdom and practical daily actions, we can all learn to create joy and happiness for ourselves and others, finally in every moment of our lives.

The Courage to Love

Love is the great healer, the harmonizer that brings joy to our relationships and great meaning to our life. But how do we remain open-hearted and loving in the face of betrayal, hurt and abuse? When we begin to feel wounded, insecure and overwhelmed, is it possible to keep from shrinking into those wounds? The answer is Yes! Buddhist teachings reveal how we can tap into the reservoir of love that exists within each of us, and thereby learn to heal and transform all our relationships, including our relationship with ourself. Learning how to love authentically will give us the confidence we need to stop living defensively – caught up in anger, resentment and despair. As we will see, our wounds can serve as the springboard for becoming the powerful, joyful and beneficial person we wish to be.
