Befriending Fear 💭 Workshop with Whit Hornsberger
Fear is a natural part of being human—but what if, instead of resisting it, we learned to work with it?
Join Whit for a lecture and mettā meditation to gently befriend fear through the cultivation of loving kindness. In this workshop, you will explore the Western and Buddhist science of fear (bhaya), including its evolutionary roots, neuroanatomy, and conditioned patterns within the mind. Through teachings drawn from Buddhist psychology, neuroscience, evolutionary psychology, and contemplative practice, you will examine how fear operates and how loving-kindness (mettā) offers a path toward greater freedom, awareness, and inner security.
Whit draws from over two decades of dedicated study and practice in Theravada Buddhism, Classical Yoga, meditation, psychology, and yoga therapy. His approach integrates traditional Buddhist and yogic wisdom with modern understandings of the human mind, suffering, and healing.
This workshop is an invitation to meet yourself with curiosity, compassion, and courage—both on and off the mat.
