Train Your Mind with Mindfulness and Meditation

A trained mind is a happy mind. We are not fixed in our thinking. We are responsible for what is happening inwardly, and can therefore change it for the better. This gives us encouragement, confidence, and inner strength.

Throughout this series we will look at how to practice watching our mind, how to really understand our thoughts, and how to make lasting positive change. In particular, we will see how mindfulness is key to a happy life and how to make it a consistent habit. 

Feel free to drop in to any class, or join the series as a whole. Everyone welcome!

Train Your Mind with Mindfulness and Meditation

Overcoming anxiety does not mean merely coping with the stresses of life. It means undoing the root causes underlying anxiety and replacing them with powerful, confident attitudes. We can all do this through meditation.In this course, we will explore where anxiety comes from, how to reduce and abandon its causes, and how to create lasting, healthy habits for peace. We will leave feeling empowered with actionable practices to make real change in our life. Feel free to drop in to any class, or join the series as a whole. Everyone welcome!
