Adversity's Hidden Gifts

There are aspects of life that are not pleasant. Among the countless joys and blessings, there is loss and pain, but if we mindfully accept these, it can add to the depth of our life experience. Doing so can also reveal a hidden gift, even if that is just greater confidence that we can use to navigate this life with equanimity.

In this practice, you are guided to explore the difference between our usual way of thinking about things unpleasant and a mindful way of practising acceptance.
