Do you find it challenging dealing with the holidays and your family?

If you experience “10,000 Joys and Sorrows” during the holiday season, Laura’s talk might be helpful.

She speaks about the judging mind, comparing mind and habit patterns. Also included are your authentic self and the Dharma aspect of the book “The Underachiever’s Manifesto” by Ray Bennett.
