In a world of doomscrolling, endless notifications and pressure, many of us are constantly distracted, stressed and disconnected. Breaking out of the algorithm to experience genuine peace of mind seems impossible.
In this one-day workshop, we will share timeless Buddhist wisdom on how working with our own mind can give us the confidence to reclaim our mental focus, open our heart and find contentment every day.
Drawing on a centuries-old tradition that shows how we can develop inner peace and resilience, this day will offer practical insights into working with distraction, finding genuine connection with ourselves and others, and discovering a deeper, more enduring happiness.
Whether you are completely new to Buddhism or have an established meditation practice, this day offers an opportunity to pause, reflect and explore a wiser way of living in our hectic, fast-moving world.
The day will include:
- Detailed guidance on how to meditate
- Time for meditation and contemplation
- Tips on how to apply meditative tools in your daily life and your relationships to combat the stresses of our world
- Group discussions and Q&A, offering you the opportunity to explore the teachings and practices in an open supportive environment and to connect with a community of practitioners.
