About this event - This Course will be held (in-person only) at The Philosophers House in Johnson City, TN
There are many things in life that we just don’t like and would rather avoid, There are difficult people, disappointments and loss, or a life that looks and feels quite differently then how we had hoped, imagined, or planned. When we meet with ‘unwanted’ circumstances resignation or anger can easily set in and we experience a type of ‘inner resistance’ that can feel as if we are going through our life with the emergency brake on.
In this course we will learn how to move beyond this heavy mind of resistance and replace it with a wisdom mind of acceptance. Then quickly, we will begin to experience greater energy, joy, and lightness in our life. Everybody Welcome.
Includes guided meditations, talks, time for Q&A and a tea break.
