TUESDAYS | 7 - 8.30PM

Dealing with Difficult People.

Class fee: $15 (free for members)

Tuesday 9, 16, 23, 30 Apr

This class is normally taught by Resident Teacher Gen Kelsang Rabten - please click here to book.

Explore Buddha's teachings on navigating challenging conversations, relationships, and situations, gaining insights into specialized methods that significantly enhance your ability to handle difficulty and achieve positive outcomes. Discover the transformative power of meditation, empowering you to approach challenges with productivity and happiness.

Instead of succumbing to feelings of anxiety, defensiveness, anger, depression, or overwhelm, meditation becomes a practice that equips you with the skills to navigate conflict and confrontation with clarity and confidence. Join our weekly drop-in classes to not only halt the dragging down effect of difficulties but also leave with practical tools that will empower you to face and overcome them.

It's time to transform the way you deal with difficult people and situations – making the seemingly impossible task of handling difficulties productively and even happily entirely possible!
