Happiness: A Buddhist Approach to Living Lightly

2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd June

Sometimes we tend to limit ourselves, creating patterns of thinking that lead to stress and dissatisfaction. But by recognising our nature as open and full of possibility, we can begin to live with greater freedom, with a light and flexible touch. Buddhism offers a wisdom approach to life – helping us to move out of a fixed, limited experience, into a world of possibility, peace and happiness.
A Buddhist Approach to Living Lightly offers simple meditations and clear insights you can apply immediately in daily life. No previous experience is necessary.

  • Week One: Mentally Relax and Be Free to Let Go
  • Week Two: Mental Flexibility and confidence
  • Week Three: How to stay strong when things go wrong
  • Week Four: Self-awareness: Who do you think you are?

Everybody welcome!

Just breathe: Take a break and calm the mind

18th 25th August, 1st September

Step out of the rush of daily life and reconnect with a sense of inner calm. This course offers simple yet powerful techniques to quieten the mind, build positive habits, and bring more peace into your everyday experience.
Each session includes clear instruction, guided meditations, and practical tips to help you continue your practice beyond the class.

Week 1: Developing Inner Calm
Settle the mind using gentle breathing meditation. Learn to let go of distractions and begin experiencing a natural sense of inner peace and relaxation.

Week 2: Combining Mindfulness of the Breath with the Power of Mantra
Deepen your meditation by combining awareness of the breath with the positive energy of mantra. This powerful method helps to stabilise the mind, reduce negative thinking, and cultivate a more positive inner dialogue.

Week 3: Breathe Peace, Breathe Happiness
Combining breathing meditation with the practice of taking and giving, has many benefits. It improves our concentration, makes our love and compassion very strong, and accumulates vast positive energy or merit. In this way, the simple act of breathing is transformed into a powerful spiritual practice.
