With Kiran Patel

This course explores how we relate to our anxious thoughts and how that impacts our lives. When we come to see that all thought is ephemeral and is only passing through, we can learn that it is safe to no longer place our attention on any anxious thinking that we may be experiencing.

Accessible course to explore the nature of thoughts and a way to ease into learning not to allow anxious thoughts so much power.
