Our mind is our greatest healer. In this 5 class series, you can discover how to actualize your potential to overcome all mental pain, sorrow, loss, physical suffering, illness and disease through one of the most renowned ancient meditations taught by Buddha, known as “taking and giving". We will learn how to transform the simple act of breathing into a powerful healing practice that causes mental peace and happiness, improves concentration, enhances our love, compassion & wisdom and brings great meaning to our life.

These classes will include practical instructions & guided meditations. Refreshments will be served afterwards, with an opportunity to chat and discuss the class.

These classes are presented as a series, but you can also attend by class.

Whereas each one of us is just one single person, other living beings are countless in number; therefore the happiness and freedom of others are much more important than our own.
