Happiness is your birthright, and it is easily available at any given moment, teaches Pema Chodron. So, why do we reside in such suffering? "The prospect of happiness is not based on outer things; they come and go, leading to us misery," she begins. "We're always chasing after something, aiming to enough time difficult places. But there are a great number of small sweetnesses that we ignore because they're so fleeting." With True Happiness, Chodron guides us through simple-yet-effective practices that show us how to identify and nurture these occasions of delight, cultivating them until they are more plus more frequent, accessible, and real as a regular influence inside our lives. At the main of everything is "basic goodness", a Buddhist view that each of us is fundamentally awake and compassionate, yet we tend to look at ourselves from a location of "badness", explains Chodron. We spend our lives in self-doubt and confusion, wanting to be perfect and "get it right". But life is approximately being open to whatever might arise, including feelings of uneasiness as well as feelings of contentment and peace. Instead of asking "how can I escape this?" ask "how can I stay static in this moment of discomfort and start to soften?" It is in that moment of softening that might be your open heart, teaches Chodron. "Everyone gets the longing to feel the open heart, because it is a deep happiness that can't ever be taken away." True Happiness gives you the chance to spend "Yarne", or winter retreat, with Pema Chodron in the heat and comfortable surroundings of your own home. Join this best-selling author and teacher as she guides you through seven hours of effective meditations and practices to dissolve the barriers to your heart, reconnect with the foundation of basic goodness, and cultivate a feeling of happiness, if only to touch upon it for brief but treasured moments at the same time.
