3 Week Meditation Course with Buddhist Nun, Kelsang Oden

Friends Meeting House

Imagine a day or indeed a life, free of stress, frustration, anger, anxiety, fear, resentment and self-criticism. Whilst we may feel this is impossible today, in truth it can become a possibility for everyone, more and more, day-by-day. In this 3-week course, Buddhist teacher Oden will guide us in meditations and practises for daily life, that will enable us to recognise, reduce and let go of unhealthy or unhelpful states of mind, that can all too often burden our minds, leaving us feeling mentally, emotionally and energetically depleted and discouraged. In this way, we will come to experience a deep and stable experience of inner peace, genuine happiness and positive energy that comes from learning – and in time mastering – the art of letting go. Kelsang Oden is a Buddhist nun who is a sincere Kadampa Buddhist and a student of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. Kelsang Oden's teachings are presented with humour and practical examples that make them accessible to everyone. Through her kindness and enthusiasm for meditation practice, she provides an inspiring example of a modern Buddhist practitioner for our society.Dates: Tuesday September 27th, October 4th &amp; 11th | 7pm - 8pm BOOKING ONLINE ESSENTIAL!
