CURRENT COURSE:
The Healing Power of Meditation (Starts 16/5/22)
We all need healing at the deepest level. We carry traumas with us, not only from earlier in this life, but from previous lives as well. In this 3-week course learn a simple Buddhist meditation technique to heal body and mind at the most profound level.
NEXT COURSE:
Living in the Moment (STARTS 6/6/22)
In our busy lives we often find it difficult to relax and enjoy the moment. Even while doing things we like, our mind is rarely in the present – we are constantly making plans for the future, worrying about what might happen next, and never feeling fully content.
On this course learn the meditations to help us let go of this limiting mental habit. Through this we will develop a peaceful mind, be able to make the most of every moment of our life and begin to uncover its true meaning.
ABOUT THE CLASSES
Everyone is welcome. Classes include guided meditations and Buddhist teachings that are very practical and easily applied to help solve daily problems and experience more peace of mind. There is no need to book or bring anything, or to start at the beginning of the course – you can drop-in any week. At the end of each class there is an opportunity to ask any questions that you may have about the topic or about meditation. We hope to see you soon 🙂
Cost:$14 (Centre members free)
