At The Adelphi Hotel, Liverpool,
Join visiting Buddhist teacher, David Oromith, for a no-nonsense, down-to-earth talk on transforming difficulties into wellbeing. We will explore how we can navigate life’s difficulties with resilience, cultivate a strong and balanced mind, and emerge with a healthier and happier approach to challenge and change.
In a world filled with challenges and uncertainties, it's not always easy to face problems head on. But, where we cannot control what the world brings to us, we can control what we bring to the world. Join us and discover powerful strategies and practical practices from the Buddhist tradition that turn adversity into opportunity.
It's time not just to weather the storm – but to learn to dance in the rain!
Everyone is welcome to join, regardless of background. This talk is suited to beginners and regular practitioners alike, and could be a good entrance into Buddhist mind-training.
Learn how changing our attitude can help us to manage life's stress and daily challenges.
Explore how difficult situations can bring us greater levels of wellbeing, wisdom and compassion.
Experience stillness and calm through easy-to-follow guided meditations.
An opportunity to ask questions, and share and learn with like-minded friends.
