Join Buddhist teachers devon and nico for an intimate evening exploring how ancient wisdom meets modern love. Drawing from their new book This Messy, Gorgeous Love: A Buddhist Guide to Lasting Partnership, they’ll share practical insights on bringing mindfulness and compassion into the beautiful complexity of intimate relationships.
Through personal stories and guided meditation, discover how Buddhist principles like dukkha and impermanence apply to partnership. Learn why conflict can become a doorway to intimacy, what real patience looks like, and how embracing love’s messy reality can lead to greater joy and connection.
Whether single, partnered, or somewhere in between, this evening offers wisdom for loving more skillfully in all relationships. Come ready to laugh, reflect, and see your connections through fresh eyes.
