Amena Hajjar • October 26, 2021

Free Book Study Group

Wise teachers, His Holiness the Dalai Lama & Archbishop Desmond Tutu open our minds and hearts to the understanding that despite hardship and loss we can experience joy every day. In our five sessions we will focus on the three major parts of the book: the nature of true joy, the obstacles to joy, and the eight pillars of joy. We will especially concentrate on the final section of the book, Joy Practices, which teaches daily practices we can add to our lives so that we can change the habit of living life joylessly. And make commitments to these practices.
