The Happiness of a Good Heart
True happiness arises from a good heart — one that is open, kind, and free from prejudice. In this new series of classes, we’ll explore Buddha’s teachings on love and compassion, learning how to develop a mind that embraces all living beings with warmth and understanding.
Through meditations on equanimity, affectionate love, and compassion, we’ll discover how to open our hearts and dissolve the barriers that separate us from others. We’ll also look deeply into how to view our own and others’ faults in the mirror of Dharma — understanding that, in truth, living beings have no faults, only temporary states of confusion.
Each class offers practical guidance, reflection, and guided meditation — helping us cultivate the peaceful happiness that naturally arises from a good heart.

- Develop equanimity and open your heart to others with genuine affection

Freedom Through Wisdom: Seven Steps to a Peaceful & Joyful Mind
A joyful mind and inner freedom arise not just from letting go of pain or cultivating a good heart, but from understanding the nature of the mind itself. In this seven-week course, we’ll explore how insight into thoughts, emotions, and perceptions can release suffering and cultivate lasting clarity, peace, and joy.
You’ll experience greater calm and clarity in meditation and also cultivate a mind that is more resilient, wise, and free — capable of responding to life’s challenges with peace, compassion, and joy.
Each week builds on practical meditations and timeless teachings to help you develop awareness, insight, and freedom in your daily life.
