How to let go of stress and anxiety with meditation
4-week course starting Nov 4

Week 1 – Nov 4: Special talk: How to Meditate in a Busy World
Week 2 – Nov 11: Getting our meditation started
Week 3 – Nov 18: How to meditate successfully
Week 4 – Nov 25: Overcoming distraction

We all know what it feels like to have a distracted mind. We struggle to focus, our attention is constantly pulled in different directions, and even during meditation our mind is constantly wandering to our to-do list, our dinner plans, and the awkward conversation we had with our colleague.

Luckily, Buddha taught practical methods for developing a still, focussed mind – both in meditation and in daily life. In this practical course, learn how you can reclaim your mental focus through applying these methods. Gradually, we can learn to direct our mind wherever we wish, and uncover the deep peace that arises from a concentrated mind.

This course is perfect for those who are new to meditation, and for experienced meditators who wish to deepen their meditation practice. Everybody welcome!
