McMinnville | Finding Happiness Within

THIS CLASS IS NO LONGER BEING OFFERED

If you are interested in this class, please contact [email protected]

Where does lasting happiness come from? We think we can find it somewhere outside ourselves—a new house, a delicious dessert, the right job. Yet those things, even if they’re great at first, let us down sooner or later.
Real happiness comes from inner peace. Explore this ancient wisdom with us and learn how to find inner peace and happiness where it really can be found.
Everyone is welcome! Drop-ins are welcome!
This class will take place at the McMinnville Senior Center
