Living In The Moment

A Four Week Meditation Series in Fort Worth, Texas

Mondays from 7:00 pm - 8:15 pm

Feel free to drop in at any point in the series. Everyone is welcome!

We can get so caught up in stress about the past and the future that we miss what is happening right in front of us. We assume that happiness is coming if we work hard enough, plan well enough, and succeed in our endeavors. This mindset creates a lot of pressure, and for as long as we are stuck in it, true happiness will escape us. Although a future may come, the only moment we actually have is right now.

Through Buddhist meditation we can reduce our tendency to hold onto the past and grasp at the future. We can transform our attitude towards life and discover a greater happiness in each moment. Everyone is welcome!

Meditations for this month include:

  • Meditation to Bring You Into the Present

  • Letting Go of the Past 

  • Letting Go of the Future

  • Embracing Change 

What to expect:

  • Classes are approximately 1-1/4 hours long.
  • Classes include two guided meditations and a talk on Buddhism for everyday living.
  • Occasionally Q&A is offered at the end of the class.
  • Although part of a series, each class is self-contained so you can check out any single class or jump into the series midstream.
