Dr. Jonathan Page: The Wisdom of Sadness
13 April 2023 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm
Description
We are excited to announce an upcoming talk by the renowned Dhamma teacher and Medical Oncologist, Dr. Jonathan Page on “the Wisdom of Sadness”.
Please join Dr. Jonathan Page for an enlightening and thought-provoking talk & discussion, on the value of embracing sadness as a powerful tool for growth and transformation.
Speaker
Jonathan Page has been a medical oncologist for 40 years and whose meditation practice goes back to 1984, but to his chagrin was largely an erratic practitioner until 2004, generally employing meditation as a last resort to manage innumerable life crises (with variable impact).
Over time he has found meditation to be of great personal benefit, particularly in navigating the major challenges of life, notably aging and mortality, the impermanence of relationships and the ravages of burnout.
In understanding and largely overcoming burnout it has been possible to treat cancer patients with greater compassion, attending to the vital psycho-spiritual domain, whilst retaining some degree of resilience. Meditation can open the door to clear understanding and vast possibility.
