Mindfulness or mind training practices, enable us to stay strong and positive in how we face the challenges of life. Through training our minds, we can transform any negative circumstance into an opportunity to develop love, compassion and understanding.

These powerful remedies, which include both skillful means and wisdom are employed to subjugate the self-clinging, based on a false conception of self, that is at the root of all suffering. The wisdom methods, such as meditative analysis, lead to the realisation of selflessness, while the skilful means focus on the development of great compassion, through the meditative practices of equalising ourselves and others, exchanging ourselves and others.a
