MEDITATIONS FOR A HEALTHY MIND
We look after our physical health by eating the right things and getting regular exercise. But what can we do to maintain a healthy mind as well?
Just as certain foods can harm our body and zap our physical strength, Buddhist psychology reveals how certain inner states have the power to weaken our mental health and happiness.
Stress, discouragement and depression can all easily snowball into deep-seated mental habits, and when they do, such patterns of thought often leave us feeling inherently stuck and limited.
But by learning to harness the power of inner peace in meditation we can start to strengthen our mental health each and every day – empowering our mind with calm, positivity and resilience.
Each class is self contained so you can follow a series or just drop in to any class – everyone is welcome.
Fee: £10 per class | £30 full 4 week course | members free
