The Power of a Compassionate Heart -

New Series of Meditation Classes

June 1st - July 9th

Regular Meditation Classes in the High Peak, East Cheshire and Staffordshire Moorlands

Meditation classes for everyone - 6-week series of classes

https://www.meditateinhighpeak.org/meditation-classes-for-everyone

In these practical meditation classes, we will learn how to deepen our love for others, so it becomes a compassionate wish to protect them from suffering as well as wishing for them to be happy. These beautiful meditations are from Eight Verses of Training the Mind and have inspired generations of Buddhist practitioners for almost a thousand years. They are just as relevant today as they were in previous times. If we learn how to develop our compassionate heart through these magical meditations, we will eventually be able to heal others without being overwhelmed by their suffering. We will find peace of mind in the face of others' suffering and thus be able to really help them. A must for people who care for others - which means everyone is welcome!

Week 1 - Preparing the ground for compassion to grow
Week 2 - Developing our compassion
Week 3 - Unlocking our wish for others to find real happiness
Week 4 - How to meditate to take away others suffering
Week 5 - How to meditate to give happiness to others
Week 6 - Strengthening our intention to always be there for others
