Don't Worry, Be Happy
Worrying is easy. What we don't often realize is that it also ruins our happiness.
Rob will give teachings and guide meditations that lead to mental well-being, peace and happiness, even when life is very difficult. He will explain how we can permanently solve all our suffering and problems - our unpleasant feelings - and accomplish the real meaning of our human life through receiving Buddha's teachings. Each week you will receive practical advice that you can put into practice immediately. Over time, these new understandings will not only enrich our life, but have life changing results. How fortunate we are! Everyone is welcome. $12 per person; free with monthly membership. No registration required. Simply show up!

Happiness Not Humbug
In his holiday classic, A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens shows us why misery and loneliness accompany a life lived for purely selfish ends.
In this workshop Rob will share inspirational wisdom and the tools that Buddha has given us to change and grow. This will lead to finding meaning and happiness during the holidays and all year round.
