Meditation for Beginners

 

Sundays, 13, 20 & 27 June, 11 & 18 July 2021, 10am – 11.30am (Online)
Facilitated by: Wee Geok Hua

By learning to relax the body and still the mind from the myriad webs of distractions and the incessant colouring of our mental landscape, our mind will become clearly aware of the mental processes taking place therein. And for the first time, we will begin to understand how our auto-habitual tendencies continuously condition our perceptions of and reactions to the world around us.

We will learn how to use the Mindfulness Practice as a tool to cultivate concentration and gain insights into the workings of our mind, enabling us to deepen our sense of well-being and generate greater inner balance as we go about attending to the business of and facing the challenges in our lives.

 

The classes will be delivered online using Zoom. The details are as follows:
