Meditation & the Art of Positive Thinking
MEDITATION COURSE
SATURDAY 15 JUNE | 2 - 5PM
with gen kelsang wangmo
Part of the Leith Festival
Is your glass half full or half empty? Whether we experience a happy, meaningful life full of exciting challenges and opportunities for growth, or a stressful, unhappy life full of difficulties and problems, all depends on our way of thinking!
When we are positive we feel good and happy, but negative thinking can be a strong habit that prevents us from living a happy and meaningful life. If we understand the power of our mind to create our experiences we can learn to transform our mental states from negative to positive through meditation. We will then gradually become able to maintain positive and joyful wisdom-based attitudes throughout our daily life and activities.
Discover through the practical timeless wisdom of Buddhist meditation how to apply positive thinking to your own life right now.
Includes talks, guided meditations, discussion and Q&A.
No experience necessary, everybody welcome!
