The Science of Happiness Half-day Retreat

On Monday nights and Tuesday mornings, Kadam Morten has been teaching a series called The Science of HappinessThrough the inner science of meditation, Buddha discovered that the actual causes of happiness are inside the mind. Through applying the practice of meditation in our life we verify Buddha’s insights directly in our own experience. We become the inner scientist, and in the process learn how to skillfully let go of those states of mind that give rise to our unhappiness, and to nurture those inner states of peace, kindness, wisdom and love that give rise to feelings of authentic happiness.

Join us for this half-day retreat in which we can go deeper into our understanding of these teachings and how we can verify them for ourself in our own life.
