Meditation Essentials Course
A Five-Week Introduction to Mindfulness
and Loving-Kindness Meditation Course
Starts Thursday 16th May 2024, 6:30pm – 8:45pm
Led by Sadayasihi
Meditation is a means of transforming the mind. It helps us change the way we relate to ourselves and the world around us.
On this course we teach two meditation techniques, which consist of simple but effective practices drawn from the Buddhist tradition and were originally taught by the Buddha himself. They complement each other and can be learned by anyone, and you don’t have to be a Buddhist to benefit from them!
For more on meditation, mindfulness and loving-kindness, see our meditation page.
Over the five weeks we will cover:
Meditation & Mindfulness
- What is Meditation?

- The Mindfulness of Breathing
- Exploring Aspects of Mindfulness
