Suitable for those
who have a practice or are comfortable sitting for
40 mins. We welcome beginners to sit with us but
please be aware we don’t have a regular teacher
who can provide introductory sessions. You can
however find a number of introduction to
meditation talks and guided meditations online
(see suggested links below for examples).
Insight-Vipassana is
the liberating process of seeing deeply into the
way things are. The Buddha's teachings allow us to
cultivate inner calmness and wellbeing in order to
directly perceive the habitual patterns of mind
that create stress. When we see these limitations
we are free to open and explore a creative life.
Heart Insight is a group suitable for those who
are interested in developing liberating meditation
practices and insights.
When: Sunday evenings 7.35pm
(after the yoga class departs)
