Weekly Sunday Meditation Classes with Sanema Naomi Hardrick

• Each class begins with guided breathing meditation, to help settle the mind, let go of distractions and cultivate inner peace. The meditation is followed by a brief, traditional Buddhist prayer, called Liberating Prayer.
• The Teacher will then give a practical teaching based on the topic of the class series and explain how we can integrate Buddha’s timeless wisdom into our busy daily lives.
• The teaching is then followed by a guided meditation to help us mix our mind with the teaching and take it to heart.
• Time permitting, at the end of the meditation class we spend a few minutes in group discussion and the teacher will take any questions that the class might have about the topic.

Confidence to Change
with Kadam Peter
We all want to be more confident, courageous and happy. However, we find it difficult to create the changes we seek. Instead we get stuck in unhealthy and self-sabotaging habits of mind. Buddha’s meditations and teachings on the practice of joyful effort give us the confidence and skill to change. Classes build as a series; each one stands alone, and drop-ins are welcome.

Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Thursdays | 12:15pm-12:35pm
Take an afternoon break and intentionally cultivate inner peace, mindfulness and concentration, No previous experience is necessary. No special clothing is required. Just show up!
