We are discussing Open Heart, Open Mind by Tsoknyi Rinpoche.

In Open Heart, Open Mind—Awakening the Power of Essence Love, Tsoknyi Rinpoche writes, “Learning to live with... courage requires us to see the nature of the challenges we face, the nature of ourselves, and the nature of reality, in a radically different light.” To this end, the author addresses such obstacles as habitual patterns and the process of identification, then outlines ways to access the individual’s “tremendous inner potential for openness, warmth, and wisdom.”


Every Wednesday, join us at the “Well of Being” where Eve offers a blend of Tibetan Buddhist practices and modern psychology for cultivating concentration, emotional awareness, insight, and compassion. Reveal the healing source of your inner well-being through meditation, contemplation, and discussion.

This class is open to everyone. No prior meditation experience is required.
