THE SANCTUARY WITHIN_1 (4/19/2026)

PART I: THE INNER ANCHOR In a city that never sleeps, the most radical act of self-care is learning how to be still. Led by the Abbot of Chuang Yen Monastery Ven. Youmin, this introductory series is designed for the high-performing New Yorker. We're moving beyond the clichés of wellness into the profound science of Buddhist psychology. WHAT WILL WE DO? We will explore the ancient mechanics of the mind through the art of breath, deconstruct the filters of our perception, and gain a definitive framework for stress management. This isn't just a lecture, but a mental operating system upgrade. COME DISCOVER THE "INNER ANCHOR" THAT KEEPS US GROUNDED, NO MATTER HOW FAST THE CITY MOVES.
