Real Happiness at Work

Presenter:

Sharon Salzberg

Time:

54:10

Summary

We will explore a path to finding real happiness at work. Despite the many hours we tend to spend working, that arena of our lives may not be the source of great fulfillment or meaning. We will look at the qualities that can turn that around, including mindfulness, compassion, resiliency, integrity, and open awareness, and learn practices that help cultivate each of these.

Transcript

Great. Thank you so much. It's such a delight to be here. I was here, uh, a little bit for this conference, wisdom 2.0. So it was, it was kind of nice coming back into the same room and just. Just sort of settling. So, um, I, as, uh, you doubtless know I'm a meditation teacher and it's very funny now when I'm introduced that way because I came back from India where I'd first gone to study.


Uh, I went in 1970 and, and came back in 1974. And in those days I'd be at a party or some social situation and people would say to me, what do you do? And I'd say, I teach meditation. And they would kind of go, oh, that's weird. Occasionally somebody would say to me, oh, did you meet the Beatles when you were over there?
