"If we want to experience true, lasting happiness, we need to learn the secret of inner peace by meditating"
Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
Our meditation classes for schools gives kids of all ages the opportunity to discover meditation and how to connect to their potential for true inner peace and happiness.
Meditation and mindfulness techniques are time-tested methods for helping people (of all ages) rein in their distracted and anxious minds. Taking that boundless energy of children and assisting them in directing it towards a single object of meditation, their own breath for example, will bring great benefit to them.
A restless mind is not a happy mind and can give rise to stress and tension. By doing simple meditations this turbulence will reduce and they will be left with a calm, spacious feeling in the mind.
With a little guidance and instruction, the young meditators can readily tap into the joys of a peaceful and content mind.
