Now Online: That’s Life – Navigating Major Life Changes with Confidence and Clarity
 
with Brian Simmons
 
Sunday, May 31st, 2020 | 1:00pm – 4:30pm, ET
 

 
Often we fear the unknown of change. But it is possible to transform our doubts and fear into courage and ease. In this new That’s Life program, New York Insight teacher, Brian Simmons, will provide us with effective skills to reframe and navigate the difficulties of major life changes and transitions with a sense of equanimity and purpose.

Drawing from both classical Buddhist practices and non-Buddhist techniques from a variety of sources, the half-day is designed to inspire courage, confidence and context for powerful transformation. If you are facing a major life transition: career changes, graduation, relationship endings and beginnings, illness, children leaving the nest, going back to school, retiring, aging, the full catastrophe… this program is for YOU!

Meditation practitioners of all levels are welcome.
