We run a regular programme of introductory classes for people who are new to Buddhism and meditation as practiced in our tradition. Because meditation is one part of an overall package in Buddhism, most of our classes for newcomers are an introduction to Meditation and Buddhism, rather than being just about meditation alone.
What classes are there?
Wednesday evenings
Six Week Course Introducing Buddhism and Meditation.
The course explores basic Buddhist tools for living well: ethics, meditation and wisdom. The course includes an introduction to the mindfulness of breathing and development of loving kindness meditation practices. The evenings run from 7.30 to 10pm.
*Sign Language available on request: BSL interpreter NRCPD registered T.I.
The next course starts on Wed 22 September
The course is free, but we do depend on donations, so if you are able to give, we would be grateful. We suggest between £20 – £40
Introductory Days
A day to introduce the mindfulness of breathing and development of loving kindness meditations and relate them to basic Buddhist principles.
We’ve just had an intro day, we’ll advertise the date of the next one soon.
As above, the day is free but we suggest a donation of between £15 to £20.
A light vegetarian lunch will be provided, please let us know in advance if you are coming.
Lunchtime Meditation
One hour sessions including led body awareness and mindfulness of
breathing or development of loving kindness meditation. Ideal for
newcomers or anyone looking for a quieter, stiller way to spend their lunch hour.
