The Inner Warrior
Series dates: November 2-23, 2026
(New series begins Monday, November 30th)
We encounter many problems and adversities in our daily life and throughout our life. We have two choices: we can allow ourselves to become overwhelmed by life’s problems and be continuously anxious, or we can develop a brave heart that can happily and courageously embrace and transform life’s difficulties into opportunities for spiritual growth.
This will allow us to defeat our feelings of frustration, anxiety and anger. We can learn to respond to life’s challenges skillfully with acceptance, creativity and wisdom. Our problems will then become fuel for inner transformation and give us tremendous confidence. In this way we become like a fearless warrior!
Everyone is welcome! No experience needed. Each class includes a teaching, guided meditations, and an opportunity for Q&A as time permits.
