A companion to the book: We Were Made for These Times: Ten Lessons in Moving through Change, Loss, and Disruption (2021)
We all go through times where it feels like the rug is being pulled out from under us. What we relied on as steady and reliable changes or we lose it completely. Not only are loss and separation painful, but even positive changes can create great stress. In these 10 sessions, facilitated by author, Dharma teacher and former nun Kaira Jewel Lingo, you are invited to learn powerful ways to meet life's challenges with wisdom, resilience and ease.
Together, we'll practise ancient teachings of Buddhist psychology and meditations that aim to cultivate presence and compassion, helping us to release the fear, doubt and resistance that can hold us back. Each session will present a teaching and guided meditation practice to nurture deeper freedom and stability in daily life.
