Happiness from a Different Source: Meditations for Peace of Mind

A Meditation Series at KMC Texas

Sundays from 11:00 am - 12:15 pm
In-Person or Online for Streaming Pass Members

Feel free to drop in at any point in the series. Everyone is welcome!

It may seem like we are bombarded with messages suggesting that happiness can be found here or there, with this or that, but we all know that is not the case. We have tried finding happiness in food, drink, relationships, but in the end it always depends on our mind. We may not have realized that just yet, but nonetheless, it is true. Happiness is a state of mind, so it can only be produced by the conditions of the mind.

Join us for this brief series of classes as we build a peaceful mind from within!
