Exploring Buddhism: Meditations based on the book "How To Transform Your Life"

In these meditation classes, you will learn the foundations of Buddhist philosophy and meditation practice, which can help us maintain a positive perspective on life and approach everyday challenges with greater clarity and calm. These teachings are based on the book “How to Transform Your Life” by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.

The classes offer step-by-step guidance on the Buddhist path to inner peace in a way that is accessible and practical for everyone, regardless of background or experience.

Each class will include two guided meditations and a practical talk on meditation. After each class, there is time for Q&A, and refreshments are served.

The classes are self-contained, so you are welcome to join at any time. No previous experience is required. You can book online or register in person on the day of the class.
