A Buddhist Monk’s Guide to Happiness

We’re all on a search for happiness, but we’re looking in the wrong places.

Gelong Thubten should know. A former actor living a wild lifestyle in New York, he suffered from severe anxiety and a near-death burnout. This dramatic wake-up call led him to completely change his life: he became a monk studying under some of the most experienced Tibetan meditation masters.

Over the last 25 years he’s worked with everyone from Silicon Valley entrepreneurs to Ruby Wax and Benedict Cumberbatch, showing how meditation is not simply a stress-reduction tool or a relaxation therapy, but the key to finding long-lasting happiness. In this livestream talk, he’ll reveal how.

He says: “I want to help bring meditation into the heart of people’s daily lives, not only to reduce stress and gain greater mastery over thoughts and emotions, but also to discover the mind’s deep potential for unconditional compassion and freedom. Happiness is inside you, waiting.”
