Embracing Change

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.
