Portland | Habits of Incredibly Happy People | Evening Talk

Learn to cultivate lasting joy with positive habits during this talk and guided meditation

We tend to think, “When X happens, I’ll finally be happy.” However, event-based happiness is always fleeting. True, lasting happiness is a state of mind. Learn to develop a joyful, light, and positive mind all the time by developing positive habits of mind. Talk includes a guided meditation.

No need to bring anything, just yourself. And dress comfortably!

Everyone is welcome!

Peace in the New Year (and Always)

Beaverton | Peace in the New YearBeginner

Peace in the New Year (and Always) Where does peace come from? Our own experience tells us that peace never comes from war.
