How to be more focused

Saturday, June 15  ¦ 10.30- 1.00pm ¦ £25

Concentration is the nature of a peaceful mind. When our mind is concentrated it is relaxed, peaceful, alert and we feel happy. When meditating, the degree to which we can concentrate determines the effectiveness of our meditations. Therefore, in meditation, as in everyday life, the ability to overcome distractions is very important. In this short course you will learn how to develop and improve your concentration, how to overcome your distractions and how to cultivate your ability to concentrate through training in meditation. You will also learn how mindfulness, alertness and concentration work together to improve your mental peace and well-being. Through cultivating your concentration, you will be able to accomplish all your goals more easily, calmly and effectively.

Everybody is welcome – no need for any previous experience of meditation.

There will be two, one-hour sessions of guided meditations and practical advice for a happy life.

There will also be opportunities to ask questions during the break and at the end of the session.
