Join Buddhist meditation teacher, David Oromith, for a no-nonsense, down-to-earth talk on transforming difficulties into wellbeing. We 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, discover powerful strategies and practical practices from the Buddhist tradition that turn adversity into opportunity. Don’t just weather the storm – 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.

David Oromith

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.
