In addition to Buddhist philosophy, you'll also tap into other tools that you can use daily, such as a simple meditation that anyone can do at any time.

Pema will even guide you through the importance of finally unhooking yourself so you can begin to change and welcome more joy into your life.

This course begins by diving into the Three Difficult Practices.

You'll notice when you get hooked, as well as how to do something different and make this exploration a way of life for continued progress.

Before moving on, you'll learn a basic sitting meditation to practice mindfulness-awareness. This will further assist you in understanding what you're learning and implementing it.

Next, you'll be ready to hone in on the first difficult practice, which is acknowledging how you become hooked or caught in bad habits.

You'll also learn about a Tibetan term, shenpa, and the Eight Worldly Dharmas in order to comprehend the quality of being hooked.

Finally, Pema will continue to explore and explain shenpa as it relates to everyday decisions and old patterns of action.
