HAPPINESS FROM A DIFFERENT SOURCE.

with Peter Kurczynski, Ph.D.

Everyone wants a happy life. However, many of the things we depend on for joy and fulfillment such as entertainments, career and relationships, leave us feeling disappointed, dissatisfied, or discouraged. Actual happiness depends upon a peaceful mind. By learning to meditate, we can bring enjoyment into every aspect of our lives, and begin to discover the happiness we long for!
