Description
Now, when I sit down to meditate, I can sit with ease, compassion and light-heartedness. Michael’s emphasis on beginner’s mind and simplicity has allowed me to sit without expectations, with a warm heart.
Taught by Michael, Looking Within: An Online Meditation Course is a six-week online course in which you will learn postures for sitting meditation, how to defuse stress and experience greater calm, and tricks to stabilize emotions and reactivity.
