The CCS is pleased to announce that we will be running the 'Heart Practices' course again In August-September in Fairfield, Melbourne. Heart Practices is a 6-week course that draws on the wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism, Christianity, and the science of compassion, to explore what compassion is, what it isn’t, and how it might become our default mode – for self and others. In a warm, small-group setting, explore how cultivating compassion can enrich our lives and our capacity for courageous love. Register for the introductory evening, August 11, here.
