Meditations for a Kind Heart

Cultivating a Good Heart with Buddhist Nun Kelsang Oden

Open your heart and discover inner peace in this nurturing half‑day course exploring Buddhist meditations for developing loving‑kindness — the profound source of happiness for ourselves and others.

Drawing on the gentle and practical wisdom of Kadampa Buddhism, this course invites you to explore what it truly means to cultivate a kind and open heart. Buddhist Nun Kelsang Oden, through guided meditations and clear teachings, will help you:

  • Calm the mind and cultivate a warm, compassionate inner state.
  • Understand the difference between attachment and genuine love, and how loving‑kindness leads to lasting peace and joy.
  • Extend loving‑kindness from yourself to loved ones, difficult people, and all living beings.
  • Feel how these practices can transform daily challenges into opportunities for deeper connection and wellbeing.

Whether you are new to meditation or familiar with Buddhist practice, this course offers practical tools you can bring into your everyday life — helping you to cherish others, soothe stress and tension, and build a foundation of kindness that ripples out into the world.

Join us for a supportive, heart‑centred morning of meditation and reflection in Folkestone.
