In Transforming Our Anxiety, Venerable Robina will explore anxiety through the lens of Buddhist psychology, offering practical ways to understand what happens in our minds and how we can relate to difficult thoughts and emotions with greater clarity, courage, and compassion. With her characteristic directness, warmth, humour, and energy, Ven. Robina makes profound Buddhist teachings accessible and relevant to everyday life. Rather than simply trying to get rid of uncomfortable emotions, we will explore how understanding the mind can help us transform the way we experience and respond to them. Whether you are new to Buddhist teachings or have been practising for many years, this programme offers an opportunity to step back, reflect, and discover practical tools for meeting anxiety and uncertainty with a different mind. Join us for this special opportunity to learn from Venerable Robina, practise together, and spend time in community. For 125kr you can also join us on Saturday for a warm vegetarian freshly prepared lunch at the Center. If your planning on joining us for lunch, please purchase your lunch ticket below as well.
