In his classic teaching style that mixes joking, storytelling, and deep-cutting insights, Ajahn Brahm gives a talk loosely based on the five hindrances, spending the first 30 minutes discussing the joys of letting go of desire before delving into ill will, restlessness, and doubt in the remaining 20 minutes.  This is part of a series of teachings for the "Radiant Happiness, Lasting Peace" retreat" led by Ajahn Brahm & Ajahn Canda in Oxford, November 2025.
