When we are
discontented, changing jobs, homes or partners often seems like the answer.
When we are happy, we want things to stay just the same forever! But pushing
for change, or trying desperately to avoid it, can bring disappointment, stress
and unhappiness. In this workshop we will explore Buddha's teachings on
impermanence. As we become more familiar with this most basic truth, we begin
to develop a deep acceptance, a sense of peace, and the ability to fully engage
in the unfolding of our lives.

Directions to Holbrook Branch:
Please read these directions carefully - Mapquest
and GPS systems often mistakenly lead you to the Marriott Hotel which has the
same address as the wellness center but is located one mile west of the center
in Ronkonkoma.
Long Island Expressway (LIE, I-495) EASTBOUND: Holbrook Wellness Center is
located on the LIE service road diagonally or (directly) across from Exit 61 so
it is dangerous to exit here. For safety's sake, get off at Exit 60. Drive for
about 1-1/2 miles. YOU MUST GO ABOUT1 MILE PAST THE MARRIOTT HOTEL Pass LAUREL
STREET. Look for blue house and large lighted white sign on the right, 5000 -
Holbrook Wellness Center.
(If you accidentally drive beyond the center, you have to circle around to your
right at the next traffic light (Patchogue-Holbrook Road), bear right on Smith
Street, turn right on Union Avenue, drive one block and turn right on Maple
Avenue, drive to the end of the Maple where it intersects with the Service
Road. The office parking lot is on the left side of the road).
Long Island Expressway (LIE, I-495) WESTBOUND: Drive
west to Exit 61 - turn left to cross over the LIE (Patchogue-Holbrook Road),
just after the new GULF station bear right on Smith Street (drive one block),
then turn right on Union Avenue, (drive one block), turn right on Maple Avenue,
drive to the end of Maple to just before the LIE Service Road. The office is in
a blue house, drive into the parking lot on the left side of the road.
