Many people are wanting more happiness and stability in their lives. In this video, I share with you 6 habits that monks cultivate in the monastery that can inspire you to cultivate your own habits. Our teacher teaches us that with an untrained mind, suffering will follow and with a trained mind, happiness will follow. I hope you can take this wisdom from the monk life and integrate into your own. I hope this is helpful. Enjoy! #monks #buddhism #mentalhealth
