Adele Chatterton

Meditation calms the mind, brings focus, and helps us develop inner strength and a sense of joy. To experience these benefits, we need to meditate effectively. In this 5-week series, we’ll explore the essential building blocks of successful meditation - how to stay motivated, how to choose and focus on an object of meditation, how to improve mindfulness and concentration - and ultimately, how to experience the fruits of ancient Buddhist wisdom.
This series is suitable for beginners, and for more advanced meditators. Each class will include a talk and 2 guided meditations. Everybody is welcome!

Meditation Toolkit Classes
The weekly classes are led by Adele Chatterton, a resident of St. John's who has been practicing Kadampa Buddhism for over 20 years. Adele presents the teachings in a practical and light way, making it easy to integrate them into daily life.
As conscientious Dharma practitioners, we should observe our own shortcomings instead of being preoccupied with those of other people.
