Speaker: Sarah Ellsworth. Sarah shares how the Dharma informs and enriches her work as a nurse and midwife. Although shift work and long hours can make it challenging to maintain a consistent meditation practice, her professional life offers profound opportunities for spiritual growth. She reflects on how her contemplations of the Four Thoughts that Turn the Mind Towards the Dharma are vividly present in her daily work. Sarah describes how the Dharma softens and ripens the heart and mind, which has lead to a deep sense of contentment and happiness in her personal relationships. The inner shift that Dharma brings not only transforms one's own experience but also creates space for those around us to change and grow as well.
