How to Believe in Yourself
Finding Authentic Self-Confidence
April 3 – May 22, 2025
Authentic self-confidence can be elusive at times. Relying on worldly achievements, like the approval of others, physical appearance, or social status, can make us vulnerable when these factors are absent. This vulnerability often leads to depression and low self-esteem.
Yet, when we identify with our limitless potential for happiness, freedom, universal love, and profound wisdom – this new way of relating to ourselves gives us the positive energy and inspiration we need to make lasting inner changes.
Join us and discover ways to boost your self-belief and confidence that are not reliant on accomplishments, external validation, or appearance. Relying on Buddha’s timeless instructions, we can discover a self we wish to identify with and a spiritual confidence that can lead to lasting happiness.
Each class is self-contained. You can attend any or all of the classes.
Week 1: Our Limitless Mind
Week 2: Who Am I?
Week 3: Relying on a Spiritual Guide
Week 4: Understanding Karma: Cause and Effect
Week 5: Pure Mind, Pure World
Week 6: The True Nature of Reality – part 1
Week 7: The True Nature of Reality – part 2
Week 8: Making Every Moment Meaningful.
Each class includes a teaching and guided meditations.
Everyone is welcome. No experience is necessary
