Open to All


Everywhere in our culture we find messages telling us we’re inadequate or not good enough, and that if only we buy this product, or do that diet, we will be truly happy. The Shambhala teachings tell us that we are brilliant and complete as we are.


By letting go of the struggle to be something "better," we can make space for our inherently intelligent, compassionate, and resilient nature to flourish. The Contentment in Everyday Life course is an experiential training in mindfulness and appreciation. By opening to our natural state of being, we can begin to feel worthiness and contentment with who we are.


Class Topics

In Contentment in Everyday Life, we'll work with the following topics through instruction, meditation, and discussion:


Class 1: Making Friends With Ourselves

Class 2: Resting in the Present Moment

Programs without a price are free. For those programs with a price listed, please do not let price be an obstacle. Visit our generosity policy page.

When available as an option, your generosity in offering the patron price helps cover the costs for others who are not able to pay the full price. Any amount offered above the Program Price is considered a charitable donation to the centre, and will be included in a tax receipt issued by email in February of the following year.

For programs that have a register button, it is helpful for us if you can indicate your intention to attend by registering ahead of time. In order to prevent duplicate entries in the Shambhala Database, all registrations are reviewed before you will receive a confirmation email.

Our Refund Policy:  For convenience you can pay online using a credit card via PayPal. If we cancel the program for any reason, we will give you a full refund. We understand that sometimes after you have pre-paid, you might be unable to attend.  We will be happy to refund your payment if you request it at least 24 hours before the program starts.  Due to the difference in PayPal charges for purchases and refunds, we charge a nominal amount of $5 for a refund.
