The Psychology of Loving Awareness in Miami
February 10, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - February 12, 2017 @ 6:00 pm
A Three-Day Training in Transforming Difficulty into Ease and Well-Being
Loving awareness, mindfulness, and compassion have enormous power to benefit every human life. These time-tested tools of Eastern psychology are widely supported by modern neuroscience in more than 3,000 studies and research papers from the past 25 years. With The Psychology of Loving Awareness, master teacher Jack Kornfield invites professionals and meditators alike to join him in Miami, Florida to discover the transformative practices from Buddhist psychology that are now being applied in therapy, education, medicine, business, law, athletics, the arts, and in the personal lives of millions.
This three-day training will offer the theory and practice of age-old methods for transforming difficulty into ease and well-being. Through guided practices, wisdom teachings, experiential exercises, case studies, healing stories, dialogue, and inner training, Jack Kornfield will provide an immersive demonstration of the most important principles of Buddhist psychology for awakening the heart and mind—offering skills to aid professionals and deepen the practice of meditators, including:
- Compassion and forgiveness
- Refining clarity of intention
- Composure in stressful circumstances
- Mindfulness towards the body, thoughts, and emotions
- Fostering resilience, adaptability, and a gracious, wide perspective
When we see the spirit of a leader like Nelson Mandela or the Dalai Lama, we come to realize what is possible when we meet the world from a place of loving awareness. By cultivating our capacity for balance and attunement, we can experience joyful embodiment of inner liberation, no matter what the outer circumstances.
Join us for three days of powerful practices, heartfelt reminders, clear teachings, personal skill-building, and clinical tools—shared in a warm, retreat-like setting with a loving and open community.
Doors open on February 10 at 6 PM. Please arrive early to reserve your seat.
You may bring a notebook, journal, sweater, or small cushion for your comfort during the event.
