Happiness Hour at the Kadampa Meditation Centre in Leith

Hi everyone!

I wanted to share an event I've been going to recently that some of you might enjoy too. It's called the Happiness Hour, held on Sunday mornings at the local Kadampa Buddhist Meditation Centre on Leith Walk.

It's a really relaxed, welcoming session that includes short meditations and a talk on finding happiness through mindfulness and compassion. No experience with Buddhism or meditation is needed - it's open to everyone and very beginner friendly.

There's an optional 'brunch' after (coffee and croissants or teacakes) where people stay to chat so it's a lovely way to meet others in a gentle, friendly environment.

No need to book ahead of time, but if you join here please indicate in the comments if you intend to stay around for the brunch. Although most Buddhists are vegetarian, I'll need to let the centre know if there's a few more vegans coming along!

It's £10 entry if you're staying for brunch after, and £7 for just the Happiness Hour. (Btw - If any of you decide to become regulars it's much cheaper with monthly membership.)

Here's the event on the Kadampa site:
