Happiness: Meditations for Living Life Lightly

Saturday, 21st Nov ¦ 10.30- 1.00pm ¦ £25

Sometimes we limit ourselves through habits of thinking that create stress, pressure, and dissatisfaction. By recognising our true potential and developing a lighter, more flexible perspective, we can learn to navigate life with greater freedom, confidence, and peace of mind.
In this two-session course, discover practical Buddhist wisdom and simple meditations that help you let go of limiting patterns, adapt more easily to life’s challenges, and uncover a deeper sense of wellbeing. The teachings are practical, accessible, and can be applied immediately in daily life. Everyone is welcome to attend.

Session 1: Let Go
Learn how to mentally relax, release unhelpful patterns of thinking, and develop greater flexibility in the way you respond to life’s ups and downs.

Session 2: Resilience and Confidence
Discover how to stay resilient when things go wrong and explore a deeper understanding of yourself that leads to lasting confidence and inner freedom.

Each session includes guided meditations, practical teachings, and advice for integrating these ideas into everyday life. No previous experience is necessary. The course is taught by Buddhist nun Gen Nyingpo and is suitable for everyone, whether you are new to meditation or looking to deepen your practice.

Everybody welcome!
