Master Dao will be conducting a free worldwide meditation workshop on June 28, Monday, from 7pm to 9pm EST (4pm to 6pm PST).
Past participants have voted for the topic "Learning to Deal with Anxiety".
Indeed, anxiety is something we have all experienced before and many of us continue to struggle from anxiety. What exactly is anxiety? Why does it exist? And how does Zen wisdom teach us to deal with it? Join us as Master Dao provides a clear approach to overcoming anxiety.
In the last session, Master Dao spoke about 'Discipline' and how to get yourself organized. A blog has been written about it and you can view it here: How to Become More Disciplined.
We keep a tally of all the votes and they will accumulate for the next meditation workshop. So be sure to cast your vote when you register!
This is an opportunity for you to learn about and experience meditation and Chan/Zen/Dao philosophy. Master Dao will make it easy for you to learn and practice ancient Shaolin meditation techniques, and to apply his wisdom of Shaolin Chan-Dao to deal with modern day issues and challenges.
Indeed one can find plenty of information about meditation online. So much so that there is often conflict in meaning, leading to confusion about the practice, its origins, and the long-term goals of practice. Some people meditate because they are seeking peace. Some are seeking spiritual or religious connection. Why might you be interested?
Come learn and open yourself to a modern interpretation of what meditation means in 2021 and how it can really benefit you and the people around you.
