-Feeling depressed?

Chan meditation helps the mind quiet down naturally. With fewer scattered thoughts, it becomes easier to focus, and keep your energy throughout the day. Many people dealing with low mood or lack of motivation find that this practice gives them more clarity, stamina, and inner stability—supporting them through difficult moments without needing to force anything.


The program includes:
• Complete WeiYang Chan meditation instructions
• Guided sitting meditation session
Stretching to prepare the physical body
