Creating a Life Less Complicated – Saturday, February 12 10am to 12:30pm with Clare Morin

Modern life seems to be speeding up exponentially. Our technological devices keep us tethered to news cycles and notifications, our jobs often feel fraught with stress, and even our personal relationships can become complex and strained. But it doesn’t need to be this way.

Buddhist meditation teaches us that our world is, in fact, a reflection of our mind. And if we begin to cultivate an inner source of peace and bring greater intention and more simplicity into our daily lives, we can become much more joyful, balanced and peaceful.

Includes teaching, meditation and time for Q&A.

In person or online. This event will be delivered in-person and online via a Zoom webinar. Kadampa Meditation Center Boston is located at 2298 Massachusetts Ave. in Cambridge, just a few blocks from the Davis Square T stop. After registering you will receive instructions on how to join in the event online.

About the teacher: Clare Morin has been practicing Kadampa Buddhism since the early 2000s, when she  began to study meditation at the Kadampa Meditation Center Hong Kong. She found tremendous value in learning about meditation and using these practical teachings to solve the problems of daily life. Her studies on this path have continued in-depth, and when she moved to Maine in 2009 with her Mainer husband, she was lucky to be asked to start teaching a weekly branch class in Portland.
