Discover The Joy of Meditation

A Practical Four-Week Meditation Course
for Everyday Life

In the busyness of modern life, meditation offers a simple way to rediscover inner calm, clarity, and a more joyful way of living.

In these classes, we will explore five topics that can help us meditate more effectively:

•  How to inspire ourselves to meditate
•  What are the objects of meditation
•  What are mindfulness and concentration
•  How meditation develops wisdom
•  How to integrate meditation into daily life

Each session includes two guided meditations and a practical talk on the weekly topic.

Every class stands on its own, so you can join at any time and book for individual sessions.

Meditations are practised seated on chairs.

Whether you are new to meditation or have some experience, you are warmly invited to join us.

IMPORTANT: Due to city by-laws, advance book is required using the booking form below.

I've been to five workshops at this centre over the last year and it's completely revolutionized my meditation practice. I'm super grateful to have stumbled across them and recommend them every chance I get. Thanks!

Every time I join a workshop, I go home with valuable lessons that I can live by in daily life. The teachings are logical and cleaned my negativity significantly.

I apply many of the teachings in everything I do in my daily life and I can say I am a much happier person and lead a much lighter life. This is my personal experience. I hope that if you get a chance to try them out they’ll be helpful in some way to you as well.
