What to Do When You're Suffering | A Monk's Perspective

In honor of Mental health awareness month, I wanted to bring awareness and give a general overview of mental health along with buddhism. Both of these can be seen as models that help to address change and suffering. I hope learning about both the east and west helps to give you more tools. For anyone who is struggling with mental health, please feel free to reach out for support. #monks #mentalhealth #buddhism
