Renaissance Boston Seaport District

Change Your Mind, Change Your World 
Saturday, August 29 • 3:30-5:00pm 
Renaissance Boston (Seaport)
What if the key to a happier, more fulfilling life is not changing your circumstances, but changing your mind?
Our experience of life depends largely on how we think and respond to the world around us. When our mind is stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed, even small difficulties can feel heavy. 
But when our mind is calm, clear, and positive, we naturally experience greater confidence, balance, and happiness.
In this special event, International Buddhist Teacher Kadam Morten Clausen will share practical wisdom and guided meditations that help us transform the way we experience daily life. 
With warmth, humor, and over 40 years of teaching experience, he presents timeless meditation methods in a way that is accessible, modern, and easy to apply.
Whether you are completely new to meditation or have years of experience, you will leave with practical tools you can use immediately in your daily life.
Everyone is welcome.
