We invite you to join us to investigate how self-centredness stacks up against a more compassionate view, look at some simple, practical things we can do to soften our self-obsession, and introduce loving kindness practice, one of the core entryways into the vast toolkit of the Buddhist compassion practices.

A session in the Finding Peace and Joy Every Day series.

Spend time with your best self on a journey from sadness and anger to peace and joy. The timeless wisdom and meditative insights of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition offer many practical methods to help us heal and thrive as we face the everyday challenges of anxiety, depression, anger, physical pain, loneliness, and burnout.

This series of Saturday afternoon sessions offer an introduction to meditation and practical advice from some of the foremost Tibetan Buddhist teachers of our age. Applying these teachings can help us meet the challenges of these difficult times, to heal ourselves, and to bring us to the core of our own peace, compassion and wisdom.
Led by Western meditation instructors with many years of experience, each session consists of:
Video teachings from Tibetan Buddhist masters including Sogyal Rinpoche
Meditation practice
Time for contemplation
Group discussions and Q&A, offering you the opportunity to explore the teachings and practices in an open supportive environment and to connect with a community of practitioners
