    Making Sense of the World We Live In

    Why do we experience unhappiness and problems?

    Why is happiness so hard to find?

    How can we be free from our problems and difficulties?


    In this day course we will explore Buddha’s teachings to help us make sense of the world we live in, how we can reduce and stop our experience of problems, and how we can bring about positive changes in our life that will enable us to experience deep and lasting happiness.

    Everybody welcome!

     

    Our courses are a perfect way to both relax and develop internally. They are ideal for those who are new to meditation and those who would like to improve.
