An informative workshop exploring:

“Overcoming our fear of change opens us to the endless possibilities for creating peace in our homes, our communities and our world."

James Nguen, B.A.

“The rule of life which is good for everyone requires unselfish deeds from everyone, since experience has proven that as human beings we all want the same things for ourselves, our families, and our communities: to enjoy a pleasant existence that provides the necessities of life, happiness, security and love.”
