The meditation classes for children at Buddha Land Centre teach how to gain an experience of inner peace through meditation. They are a great way to learn how difficulties come from the mind and to start to overcome them. Through meditation we can learn to relax, let go of our daily concerns and develop a fresh and positive outlook regardless of our age. Buddha’s teachings help us to understand the experiences of others, to overcome selfishness and to cherish others. In each class there is a story or short talk, guided meditations followed be craft activities.

Everyone under 13 and over 5 is welcome but an adult needs to come along as well. The class lasts one hour with a charge of £2.50 per child. If you would like more information about these classes, or if you would like to check about the suitability of them or have any other queries please send us an email or give us a call.
