Each retreat session includes guided meditations and advice on how meditation helps us cope with the busyness of modern life, and practical techniques for integrating our meditation practice into our daily experience.

The meditations taught are tried and tested methods coming from Buddha's teachings. They focus on transforming the mind from unpeaceful, deluded states such as anger, irritation and jealousy, to positive states such as love, compassion and wisdom. There will be time for questions & answers and discussion in some of the sessions.
