Clean Pain, Dirty Pain: Grounded Living When Things Get Hard
The Buddha famously proclaimed, “All life is suffering.” While we don’t get to choose whether we have pain in our lives, we do get to choose how we’ll respond. We’ll explore ancient spiritual practices, and the wisdom of Resmaa Menakem, author of My Grandmother’s Hands, to guide us to a more settled and whole life.
