Think Better, Feel Better; Meditation classes with Gen Kelsang Thekchen
Details
A powerful truth to understand is that our thoughts shape our world. They influence how we feel, how we experience ourselves and others, and ultimately how we navigate life. By learning to think in healthier ways, we can naturally begin to feel better—gaining the inner strength to handle daily challenges and the ability to support those around us with greater understanding and compassion
