Contents and Overview
This course contains a total of 3 sessions.
In the first session, you’ll explore common problems faced by all people, such as self-hate and judgment of others, so you can begin to transform suffering into joy.
You’ll learn how a trained mind can heal you, and how the Buddhist model of awakening can replace fear, anxiety, and aggression.
After tackling the essentials of healthy living, you’ll master a loving-kindness meditation to facilitate healing on an emotional and physical level.
In session 2, you’ll dive into lessons on how to be more present in every moment, and the importance of respecting yourself and others.
To put what you’re learning into practice, you’ll move through a guided practice involving breathing with a partner. This powerful, transformative technique can be done on your own as well, and it will help you operate in a state of presence as you begin to train your mind.
Session 3 presents the Brahmaviharas, which are the Buddhist virtues of compassion, equanimity, joy, and loving-kindness.
Jack then shares how he was able to work with individuals who had experienced serious emotional, physical, mental, and sexual trauma. By following his example, you'll shift into a positive state of being while expanding your tolerance for others.
By the time you complete this course, you’ll have a thorough understanding of what you can do to transform your mind, heart, and life, and you’ll begin to feel increasingly positive the more you practice what you learn.
After experiencing a variety of meditative Buddhist practices, you’ll be able to nurture your spiritual growth and move into a more compassionate and loving state of being.
