Through mindfulness, Corey can engage the world with an open heart and a greater sense of friendliness to his being.


During our time together, we will discuss how we express love for self and others. 
 

"Through my love for you, I want to express my love for the whole cosmos, the whole of humanity, and all beings. By living with you, I want to learn to love everyone and all species. If I succeed in loving you, I will be able to love everyone and all species on Earth... This is the real message of love."  ― Thich Nhat Hanh, Teachings on Love
