Beginner’s Mind: The Art of Shoshin

  • Healing & Growth with Martin Perkins 18441 Queen Anne Road Upper Marlboro, MD, 20774 United States (map)

In Zen Buddhism, the practice of Shoshin emphasizes an open-minded beginner’s approach to life. In this discussion we will examine how the willing beginner can creatively explore life through the lens of seeing ourselves anew in each moment. A way of softening our perspective so even the most repetitive of life’s actions can be experienced with a greater sense of ease, fresh perspective and vitality.
