Developing the Five Strengths
A workshop with Melissa McKay
Saturday, July 30
9AM – Noon
Offered via Zoom
About the Workshop
The Buddha named five mental strengths that help us on our way in the spiritual path– to alleviate ourselves from the mental formations we cling to in our minds. When developed these strengths also help our endeavors in the world. They are:
- Faith/ Trust/ Confidence
- Energy
- Mindfulness
- Concentration
- Wisdom
In this workshop we will learn tools to develop these strengths and how to bring those practices to benefit our lives.
