Developing Mindfulness & Concentration – June 5th 2022

£25.00 – £30.00

Date: Sunday 5th June
Time: 10.30am – 3.30pm
Cost: £30

On this day course we will focus particularly on training in mindfulness and concentration within our meditation. This is how to deepen our experience of meditation and how our understanding and awareness of our object of meditation can develop and transform our mind. Then our concentration in our ordinary activities will also improve.

The day will consist of teachings, guided meditations, a vegetarian lunch and time to relax and chat.

Suitable for all, no matter what your previous experience in meditation is – from complete beginners to the experienced meditator.

Come along and enjoy a day of meditation with explanations on how to meditate and how to improve our meditation techniques. We will have the opportunity to engage in up to 6 meditations. 

Concentration through mindfulness makes our mind peaceful and when our mind is peaceful it is happy. Since everyone wants to be happy, we look forward to welcoming you to a very enjoyable day.
