Register now for Insight LA's annual benefit. What the world needs now is some insight, compassion, and lots of mindfulness. It's Saturday, Dec. 12, 2020.

More than ever the world is in need of the healing power of mindfulness, compassion, and the unifying force of community. Insight LA invites everyone to participate in its annual benefit to be nourished by practicing in community (sangha), while cultivating the qualities of mindfulness, resilience, compassion, wisdom, love, and joy.

There is no way to happiness; happiness is the way. This year’s all-day event is curated by Insight LA teachers and special guests to awaken hearts to meet this moment and open minds to new possibilities.
