About This Dealing With Anxiety Workshop
Anxiety and worry are increasingly common problems in our busy modern world — but what exactly is anxiety?
Anxiety is an unpleasant feeling that arises within the mind. Therefore, its causes also exist within the mind. The good news is that these causes can be reduced and eventually removed by learning to work skilfully with our mind. We do not need to search outside ourself for peace and freedom from anxiety — we simply need to learn how.
In this workshop, Gen Tsalden will explain how we can gradually abandon the states of mind that contribute to anxiety and cultivate peaceful, positive states of mind in which anxiety cannot easily arise or remain.
What will I learn?
- The mechanics of anxiety and worry
- How we can begin to undermine the causes of anxiety
- How, by understanding our mind and identifying our negative ways of thinking, we can change our whole experience of life
