As human beings, we are *almost* never satisfied with what we have.

These named emotions may potentially lead us to breach the 5 precepts, such as taking what is not ours (stealing).

Ever wonder how to overcome these emotions or how to act according to the Buddhism teaching? Come and join us to get more insight on this topic! The session will be held on Tuesday, 8 February 2022, 7-9 PM at YIH Training Room 4!

How many times have we been thankful this year? Seems tough to answer, isn't it... Letโ€™s alter this question. How often do you feel like you are not as good, wealthy, or pretty as other people?

Thatโ€™s okay, we fully understand that humans are never satisfied. Hence, we wanted to dedicate this session for you to spend a little time to reflect on things you are grateful for! Letโ€™s spend this Tuesday appreciating ourselves a little, should we?๐Ÿ˜‰

One jar of gratitude thatโ€™s all it takes to live a happier lifeโœจ

**Session will be held on Tuesday, 15 February at YIH TR4 from 7-9 PM
