Realizing True Well-Being, Part 2
Thursday, 10 April, 2025

Buddhist psychology and the Western oriented field of positive psychology agree: How we pay attention determines whether we live primarily in fear and judgment, or happiness and peace. This two-part series explores the teachings, practices and attitudes that enable us to live a meaningful life with a heart that is “happy for no reason.” In this talk, Tara explores: how cultivating a grateful, devoted heart opens us to presence, peace, and joy beyond circumstance. the "infinite field of possibility"—our capacity to incline the mind toward hope, love, and inner freedom. how mindfulness and compassionate action form a virtuous cycle that nurtures deep well-being and belonging. ways that serving others and savoring beauty reconnect us with the sacredness of life and the fullness of who we are. awakening from the trance of unworthiness through practices like metta, gratitude, and receiving love with an open heart.
