Drop-in Buddhist Meditation Classes
The evening meditation classes in Shipley teach you how to gain an experience of inner peace through meditation. They are a great way to learn to meditate, to improve your meditation practice, or to learn new meditation techniques. Through meditation we can learn to relax, let go of our daily concerns and develop a fresh and positive outlook.
Each class includes guided meditations as well as explanations of how to practice and apply meditation. These classes are self contained so you can attend individual classes. Please see below for full details.
Everyone is welcome.
