About this event
Inner Peace in the Digital Age
Tuesdays | 6:00 – 7:30 pm
COST: $10 - pay at the door Free for members
In meditation practice, the main obstacle to concentration is distraction. Distractions make us lose our concentration by causing the mind to wander from the object of meditation to something else. They are said to be the worst obstacles to making progress in training the mind.
Since our relationship with technology is a main source of distraction in modern society, it is important that we learn how to develop healthy relationships with our digital devices. We can overcome our attachment to our Smartphones, iPads, computers, video games, etc. by learning how to use our technology in a way that allows for a flourishing of our meditation practice. In this way, we can truly enjoy meditation, cultivate inner peace and enjoy a healthy, meaningful lifestyle.
Everyone is welcome! Since these drop-in classes are designed both as a series and as stand-alone classes, you are welcome to attend any time. No prior experience or commitment required.
