Living in the Moment: Finding Peace in a Changing World
Sat 17 Jan
| 10am - 1.15pm
Epping, Essex
£25
Everything around us is constantly changing — our circumstances, relationships, even our thoughts and feelings. When we resist this natural flow of change, we experience anxiety, disappointment, and stress. But when we learn to accept impermanence with wisdom, we begin to relax into life as it is, and discover a deep sense of peace in the present moment.
In this half-day meditation course, you’ll explore:
- How understanding impermanence frees us from worry and attachment
- Simple meditations to stay grounded and peaceful amidst change
- Practical ways to enjoy each moment with a calm and open heart
Led by Kadam Ai Peng McBretney, our Resident Teacher. Includes teachings and guided meditation, with time for Q&A.
Everyone welcome!
