Transforming Adversity into Peace
Meditation Workshop
@ Burnley KBC
Saturday 14 September, 10am – 1pm
In-person and livestream
While it may be impossible to avoid difficulties, through training the mind in Buddhist meditation we can use them to our advantage. This workshop will focus on this special practice of transforming adverse conditions into a spiritual path.
Rather than feeling discouraged by all the problems and pain we see around us, and within us, we discover a capacity to turn that negativity and use it to empower our mind. The result is that instead of feeling stuck and helpless, we experience an inner ability to transform suffering into powerful, positive states of mind, such as love, compassion and joy. This power enables us to not only grow spiritually, but also to exude a powerful positive influence on our world
Our half day meditation workshops are an ideal way to learn more about meditation and inner peace. They are designed for those who are new to meditation but also for those who would like to improve and deepen their understanding.
Refreshments are available in our World Peace Café during the course.
The cost of the Meditation Workshop is £15 (Monthly Members £5, FP Monthly Members £0).
Our monthly membership programme offers access to all our weekly classes as well as discounts on courses for only £20 per month – Learn more.
