A Buddhist Compass To Direct You Toward Happiness | Beth Upton

The happiness recipe from ancient Buddhist psychology.

Beth Upton has been teaching meditation since 2014. Before that she spent ten years as a Buddhist nun, five of them in Burma under the guidance of Pa Auk Sayadaw. She currently leads the Sanditthika Meditation Community.

In this episode we talk about:

• The Buddhist Abhidhamma, which Beth calls "particle physics for the mind"  
• Why she's interested in the broader teaching of Kusala (happy mind states)
• Practical ways to design our lives to get more Kusala
• The beautiful qualities of mind that all co-arise in a moment of Kusala 
• How we get tripped up in the realm of the "unwholesome"
• How Beth navigates Kusala and Akusala in her day to day life
