Working with Difficult Emotions (Talk at Kidwelly Wellbeing)

David’s workshop will take place between 12:30pm and 1:30pm at the Princess Gwenllian Centre. 
The Kidwelly Wellbeing event runs from 12:30-5:00pm and hosts well-being therapists, talks, stalls, workshops and information stands.
 
In this talk as part of Kidwelly Wellbeing, discover a way to gain choice over your emotional experience. Instead of running away or suppressing our difficult emotions, with tips from Buddhism and emotional psychology, we can learn a new and profoundly healing way of working with them and begin to choose how we respond to challenges in life.
 
This session is a mixture of talk, discussion and guided meditation and is very much down-to-earth, practical and approachable – there’s no dogma and nothing mysterious, it’s an open invitation to ‘come and see’ for ourselves.

david

David is an experienced Buddhist contemplative and meditation guide who has studied and taught internationally for several years. He is the Co-Founder of Samadhi and a qualified mindfulness teacher, Mental Health First Aider, and an active member of the Association for Spiritual Integrity. His teaching style is clear and practical, and his warm and humorous approach makes him a popular mindfulness teacher. In his own practise and teachings, David focusses on the core themes of Early Buddhism and emphasises the practices of Shamatha (meditative quiescence), and its union with Vipassana on the Four Applications of Mindfulness and the Four Immeasurables – which presents a direct path leading to the realisation of our deepest nature and the potentials of consciousness, and closely follows how the Buddha himself attained enlightenment. He considers himself to be the fortunate student of many teachers, including his root lama, Lama Alan Wallace.

If you would like to support our vision of making these teachings as accessible as possible, please consider making a donation, supporting future groups, events & retreats. Interested to know why we charge for this event and what happens to profits? Read here.
