Transform Your Life 

Drop-in Meditation Classes
In-person & Livestream

Day & Evening Classes Tuesdays to Saturdays 

Make your life meaningful with correct methods for becoming happy all the time and reducing, and ultimately ceasing, all your daily problems.

“When things go wrong in our life and we encounter difficult situations we tend to regard the situation itself as our problem, but in reality whatever problems we experience come from the mind. If we were to respond to difficult situations with a positive or peaceful mind they would not be problems for us…” Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche.

In these classes we will discover how we can transform our own lives and the lives of others through learning how to develop and maintain a peaceful mind. Each class includes a relaxing breathing meditation, a teaching, and contemplative meditation.

Each week, we will learn more about these six perfections, what they are, how we can put them into practice and what the beneficial results will be for ourselves and those with whom we share our lives.

Classes cost £6 per session or free with our monthly membership programme.
Our monthly membership programme offers free access to all in-person & livestream weekly classes as well as discounts on courses for only £20 per month – Learn more.
