Many of us live and operate from a mindset of lack, scarcity, and limitation. We focus on what we don’t have—financial security, confidence, an intimate relationship—which keeps us feeling insecure and inadequate. We think “if only I could have those things, I could be happy.” But measuring wealth by money or material possessions leaves us feeling drained and spiritually empty. Constantly striving for more often means our ego is driving our thoughts, actions, and reactions, which prevents us from reaching something greater: a true sense of inner peace, acceptance, and fulfillment. Yet, there is an inner path to prosperity and wealth that, once charted and explored, provides access to the great riches of the universe and life’s unbounded possibilities. In in new book "Abundance," international bestselling author Deepak Chopra illuminates this road to success and wholeness, helping us tap into a deeper sense of awareness to become agents of change in our own lives. The event will consist of a talk, a Q&A session, and a short meditation. Each ticket includes your own hardcopy of the book “Abundance: The Inner Path to Wealth.” Date | Tuesday, March 8 from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. Location | Online via Zoom Register here! General admission is $35. A Zoom Link will be provided once you are registered. You will also have access to the recorded version for up to 90 days following the event.
