Contents and Overview
This course begins by delving into mindfulness in relationships so you can use every relationship as a means to explore compassion in deep and meaningful ways.
You’ll uncover the ways in which you’ve been hurt by loved ones, and how your actions have hurt them. This will lead you to the concept of interbeing so you can see others for who they really are, and you’ll develop an understanding that you’re connected to everyone.
As you deepen your mindfulness practice, you’ll uncover how to look beyond notions that create suffering. As a result, you’ll liberate yourself from seeing the world as being separate from you, and you’ll recognize that everything is part of a greater whole.
Finally, you’ll discover that what you do, say, and consume can have consequences for loved ones and yourself. Ultimately, you’ll develop behaviors that promote peace and compassion for all.
By accessing the Four Nutriments, an important Buddhist teaching, you’ll even start to explore the richness of life through mindfulness and the Three Doors of Liberation.
Once you complete this course, you’ll have the tools to fully understand how mindfulness can improve your life in many ways, from your connection to your inner Self, to your relationships with others.
You’ll have the ability to bring about positive changes in the way you speak and behave daily, thereby enhancing peace and compassion everywhere you go.
