Why We Suffer—and How to Stop Adding to the Pain

We can’t stop life from bringing pain—loss, disappointment, aging—but we can stop piling extra suffering on top of it. 

In this talk, I explore timeless Buddhist wisdom and practical psychology for meeting life’s “golden winds” without being blown away by them. Learn how to recognize the difference between pain and the suffering we create, work with craving and clinging, and rest in the natural state of peaceful, openhearted happiness that’s already within you.
