✨The Magic of Meditation ✨

A 4 week meditation class series starting Tuesday 8th September

In Matlock Bath and Chesterfield

What is so amazing about meditation?

The truth is that anyone can learn to meditate, even if we may feel at the beginning our mind is too busy.. this is a normal experience and doesn’t mean we can’t learn.
Some of the benefits of a step-by-step meditation practice are that it leads to ever increasing inner peace, happiness and inner well-being. These claims seem miraculous until we try the methods out and start to experience the results for ourselves.

This course is perfect for beginners but also suitable for those who wish to improve their current meditation practise.

Book for the course or drop in to any session..

Week 1: Why meditate?
Week 2: A meditation practice
Week 3: Contemplation and concentration
Week 4: What is the mind?

“The practice of meditation is a method for acquainting our mind with virtue. The more familiar our mind is with virtue, the calmer and more peaceful it becomes. When our mind is peaceful, we are free from worries and mental discomfort, and we experience true happiness. If we train our mind to become peaceful we will be happy all the time, even in the most adverse conditions; but if our mind is not peaceful, then even if we have the most pleasant external conditions we will not be happy. Therefore, it is important to train our mind through meditation.”
