Description

Have you tried meditation without much success? Do you want to deepen an already established meditation practice?

Join Sharon Salzberg, one of the nation’s leading meditation teachers and authors, and learn to develop the fundamental skills of meditation—concentration, mindfulness, and compassion. These skills serve as the foundation for daily meditation practice and enable you to transform your life from isolation and confusion to connection and clarity.

“Meditation is not a matter of trying to stop thinking or make your mind go blank, but rather to realize when your attention is wandering and to simply let go of the thoughts and begin again. It is a way of changing your relationship to your thoughts, so you’re not so consumed by them, with no sense of space. Having a newly spacious relationship to your thoughts brings both peace and freedom,” says Salzberg.

This classic approach to meditation practice focuses the scattered and distracted mind, opening you to new sources of strength and happiness.

Suitable for both new and experienced meditators and for helping professionals who want to train their clients to meditate.
