Meditation

Meditation

Meditation is the most direct way to work on your mind and so transform your experience of life.

Meditation confronts you with who you really are, and what really drives you. It also has the potential to introduce you to a wholly new way of being: insightful, blissful, and absorbed.

We teach meditation as part of a unified Buddhist vision: a vision of self-transformation that, engaged with intensively enough, leads to Enlightenment.

Meditation is a ‘start-where-you-are’ practice. It leads you step-by-step through integration, emotional strength, insight, and finally expresses itself in spontaneous compassion. It is not primarily a technique – it’s more of an art, involving a touch of magic.

Yoga Festival Day

Whether you've been practising for years or you're finding your way into yoga for the first time, this day is an open invitation. Yoga is a delightful counterpart to meditation and Buddhist practice, it particularly helps us to be present in our bodies with kindness.

Summer Solstice Restorative Yoga Afternoon

On the longest day of the year, find inner light with yoga cultivating warmth and an opening of the heart. This two hour practice will include a Yoga Nidra to cultivate gratitude and a sense of abundance.
