Meditation Month - Citywide FREE introductory classes
In response to growing urban problems of stress and declining mental health, Hour of Peace Meetup organisers and Auckland’s Sri Chinmoy Meditation Centre are offering a citywide free program throughout March which will share basic meditation skills with anyone keen to learn.
Meditation Month will introduce the key steps in getting started, and cover a variety of techniques in calming the mind and coping with the often complex challenges of living in today’s world.
This is an admission-free initiative simply dedicated to a more peaceful world and to the quest for happiness that we all share.
