Current Donations Are Going Towards:
The Tema Conter Memorial Trust
"Heros can hurt"
TEMA aims to provide assistance to all our emergency service workers &
first responders (including paramedics, nurses, firefighters, police, military and more) by providing peer support, family services, education and training.
Emergency service workers spend their lives helping others...the events they witness every single day impact them in ways no one can describe. With so few resources to help those who help others, emergency service workers don't always know how to take care of themselves. We now see our emergency service workers with high incidence of PTSD, and so many other issues that they are unaware of how to deal with.
We help those who spend their lives helping you.
The men and women of our emergency, public safety, and military services see tragic events every day. They witness human suffering up close, and it sometimes becomes challenging to cope with the aftermath.
The result sometimes means that they will suffer from lasting memories that just won't go away. Recalling the smells, remembering the sounds and reliving the witnessed events sometimes haunt these men and women for life.
Through research, education, training, and through the provision of peer and psychological support, we aim to help these men and women when they need it most.
Shantideva's prayer
This is one of H.H. the Dalai Lama’s favourite prayers, extracted from “A Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life” by Shantideva, a Buddhist master from the monastic university of Nalanda, India and composed in the eighth century of the Christian era.
May all beings everywhere
Plagued by sufferings of body and mind
Obtain an ocean of happiness and joy
By virtue of my merits.
May no living creature suffer,
Commit evil, or ever fall ill.
May no one be afraid or belittled,
With a mind weighed down by depression.
May the blind see forms
And the deaf hear sounds,
May those whose bodies are worn with toil
Be restored on finding repose.
May the naked find clothing,
The hungry find food;
May the thirsty find water
And delicious drinks.
May the poor find wealth,
Those weak with sorrow find joy;
May the forlorn find hope,
Constant happiness, and prosperity.
May there be timely rains
And bountiful harvests;
May all medicines be effective
And wholesome prayers bear fruit.
May all who are sick and ill
Quickly be freed from their ailments.
Whatever diseases there are in the world,
May they never occur again.
May the frightened cease to be afraid
And those bound be freed;
May the powerless find power,
And may people think of benefiting each other.
For as long as space remains,
For as long as sentient beings remain,
Until then may I too remain
To dispel the miseries of the world.
We can fit 8 mats and students comfortably in our studio!
We dim our lights for relaxation :)
There are no mirrors for distraction. We prefer to focus on breath, mind, and how our body 'feels' vs looks - if your positioning isn't correct, we will help you!
Check our schedule weekly to see which classes work with your schedule!
