Seeing Things as They Really Are
4-week October course
Week 1 – 7 Oct: Why is real happiness so elusive?
Week 2 – 14 Oct: Who am I really? with Mark Budd
Week 3 – 21 Oct: Seeing beyond appearances
Week 4 – 28 Oct: The freedom of letting go
Because most of our stress and mental pain actually comes from misunderstanding ourselves, other people, and the world around us, Buddha taught how, by seeing things as they really are, we can steadily free ourselves from these.
In October we will explore Buddha’s wisdom teachings to see how a deeper understanding of reality really can transform our daily experience, allow us to let go of limiting beliefs, and develop a stable source of peace and happiness.
Everybody welcome!
FREE for Silver, Gold and Platinum Members

How to let go of stress and anxiety with meditation
4-week course starting Nov 4
Week 1 – Nov 4: Getting our meditation started
Week 2 – Nov 11: How to meditate successfully
Week 3 – Nov 18: Overcoming distraction
Week 4 – Nov 25: Deepening our concentration
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!
