Free classes

If you’ve been coming to meditation classes at KMC London for a while, and have been wanting to deepen your meditation practice or make it more consistent, the FP might be perfect for you. In this enrollment-only program, we systematically study one book at a time. Each class includes guided meditation, teachings, prayers, pair & group discussion, and advice on how to apply that week’s subject to our daily lives.

You’re warmly invited to attend these FP taster sessions free of charge to find out if you’re ready to give FP a go.

We are currently studying part one of the book How to Understand the Mind, by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche.

The first part is a practical guide to developing and maintaining a light, positive mind. We learn how to recognise and abandon states of mind that harm us and to replace them with peaceful and beneficial ones.

Went for a drop in this lunchtime and would recommend, everyone was really friendly and the meditation was really relaxing. I’ve never been before and it was completely suitable as a beginner!
AnnaAttendee
Each time I visit this place I feel very welcomed and inspired. Lots of what is said is so useable for daily life - for example how we can use patience to no longer get stressed out in traffic jams , or how we can live in the moment to let go of past stress and worries and simply enjoy .
