It’s as if instead of directly experiencing life we’re lost in a cacophony of thought\, anxiety and chaos. The Buddha’s mindfulness teachings are far more than a way of coping with the stress of the modern world. They are a direct way of seeing deeply into the truth of life and living from that. They are a way of living life fully and richly – a rich engagement of body\, heart\, and mind with life as it actually is. On this eight-week course you’ll learn\, in a step-by-step way\, how to practise the Buddha’s four fundamental dimensions of mindfulness\, as well as how to apply them to the life you’re actually living. It will be based around the highly regarded book Life with Full Attention: A Practical Course in Mindfulness by Maitreyabandhu\, and a copy is included as part of the course. As well as the course\, we are offering a free companion app for the course\, to help you in your practice of mindfulness. Each week has an introduction to the theme of the week\, a practical exercise\, a guided meditation and a poem. More details are here. \n \n \n \n \n \n Over the eight weeks we will cover: Week 1: Introductions\, exploring day-to-day mindfulness. Week 2: Mindfulness of the body and its Movements. Week 3: Mindfulness of vedanā / feeling-tone. Week 4: Mindfulness of citta – mind. Week 5: Mindfulness of dhammas – bringing the teaching to mind. Week 6: Mindfulness of art\, objects and nature. Week 7: Mindfulness of other people. Week 8: Mindfulness of Reality. \n \n \n \n \n \n WhenStarts Thursday 1st  May 2025\, 7.30pm – 9.45pm | For eight weeks WhereDublin Buddhist CentreUnit 5\, Liberty CornerJames Joyce StreetDublin\, D01 N5H6 \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Sadayasihi learned to meditate in 2007 in the Dublin Buddhist Centre while she was training to be a solicitor\, having had an interest in Buddhism since she was a teenager.
