You are not your past – Saturday, March 27 with Tiphaine Perrier

Discover the wisdom that sets you free.

‘Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.’ We may think ‘I’m not going to let them off the hook that easily!’ … but what if we were actually letting ourself off the hook, by letting go of the past?

This half-day retreat will present a profound method to address the problem of being stuck in the past with two stages: first using wisdom, cultivating insight into the nature of impermanence and change. Then, developing a strong determination, combining this insight practically into our daily activities, by deciding strongly to stop grasping at the past.

Session times:

10:00am – 11:15 am

11:45am – 1:00pm
