Life With Full Attention

A Practical Course in Mindfulness

Buddhism’s vision of infinite consciousness, exemplified by the Buddha, is a vision of our human potential. We’re like an acorn that doesn’t realise its potential is to be an oak tree. But we’re almost perpetually distracted – planning, worrying and fantasizing.

Foundations of Meditation Course

A six-week course in the essentials

Our mind is notoriously tricky - hard to manage, mostly unconscious, creative and destructive by degrees. What’s crucial is to be able to work with this tricky ‘non-thing’ called the mind. Buddhism has 2,500 years of experience working with the mind. In this sense, meditation is at the heart of Buddhism.
