Anxiety and stress are an increasingly common problem for people in our busy, modern world. These states of mind prevent us from experiencing peace and enjoying life.
Meditation is an effective way to combat negative states of mind and create a sense of mental freedom. By gaining experience of Buddhist meditation techniques and positive thinking we can learn to control our mind, rather than allowing our mind to control us. Through using these methods, we will be able to keep a calm and happy mind in all situations.
In this half day course, Buddhist Teacher Nicola will explore meditation and ways of thinking that will help us to let go of our stressed and anxious minds and deal with our negative emotions more confidently and effectively.
Everybody is welcome – no need for any previous experience of meditation.
The Teacher
This half day workshop will be led by Kadampa Buddhist Teacher Nicola.
Nicola has been practising Kadampa Buddhism for many years. She is mother and an end of life care Occupational Therapist. Her teachings are experiential, practical and transformative.
