Workshop & brunch: Happiness – even when you don't get what you want!

Happiness – even when you don't get what you want! Workshop & Brunch with Kadam Tim.

We often think that we will be happy when we get what we want – a better life, more money, the perfect balance between work, leisure and family, a stronger and healthier body. But even when we get what we want, the satisfaction rarely lasts. Why is this?

In this practical workshop with Kadam Tim, we will explore how Buddhist wisdom and meditation can help us develop a mind that is content with what we have. We will explore how we can become more satisfied with ourselves, others and our lives – without our happiness constantly depending on getting something else or more. We will discover how we can become more satisfied with ourselves, others and our lives without our happiness constantly depending on getting something else or more.

Through teaching and guided meditations, you will learn simple methods to develop contentment in everyday life. In this way, we can discover a more stable source of happiness and experience greater peace and joy in our lives, while becoming less preoccupied with what we feel we lack.

Everyone is welcome. You do not need to have experience with meditation or Buddhism.
