COURSE
The Buddhist Compassion Mindhack To End Suffering
With Jon Brooks
In this 2-day audio course, we embark on a transformative journey to understand and manage our emotional lives through the lens of both Eastern and Western philosophies. Lesson 1 delves into the ancient Buddhist concepts of "Attachment" and "Aversion," revealing how these emotional states can either trap us in cycles of suffering or become the key to a balanced emotional life. Lesson 2, contrasts the rational, truth-seeking approach of the West with the intuitive, practice-oriented perspective of the East, offering powerful Buddhist visualization techniques to reframe your relationship with your emotions. Whether you're struggling with emotional highs and lows or simply seeking a more nuanced understanding of your emotional self, this course provides practical tools and insights to help you navigate your emotional landscape more effectively. Ideal for anyone looking to enrich their emotional well-being, this course offers a holistic view that combines the best of both Eastern and Western emotional wisdom.

I’m reminded of tong-Len practice, and the deep feeling of peace that comes from envisioning taking on others’ problems and sending them relief. It’s a powerful and rewarding practice.

Excellent mini course! I enjoyed it following the radical gratitude course. Its all made me curious so I've been doing some reading on different philosophies including Buddism, Toaism and now Stocicism. It's so amazing to see how they they view life from different perspectives and such treasure to be found in each one. I've also done some meta meditation, loving kindness, over the last year but this gives me the practical tool to use it in real time, as life is happening. And now, understanding I can tap into that same compassion during challenging times is so profound! Thank you Jon!

Excellent. This is exactly what I needed to hear this morning. Recognizing my procrastination through escapism in spiritual techniques and using overdoing that (and anything seeming positive) creates imbalance. This course got me going this morning to take action on my tasks instead of placing my tasks for today behind hours of meditation, yoga and workout. This course was extremely helpful and educational. And Now I understand the difference between western culture’s “mindfulness” vs. eastern’s “meditation”. How compassion can be practiced and benefited mentally without speaking a word aloud to anyone is an incredible concept I am fully confident will change my life and others’ lives for the better. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. You are making the world a better place.

Very interesting. As an empath who can be debilitated by others' pain and derailed at times by my own issues, I found this really helpful.
