An introduction to Insight Meditation -- six-week class series
Six-week course, Wed 24th July 2024 to Wed 28th August 2024
7:00 pm to 8:30 pm
Grey Lynn Community Centre, 510 Richmond Road, Grey Lynn, Auckland
Discover the transformative power of insight meditation in this comprehensive six-week course, led by two highly-experienced meditation teachers, Jill Shepherd and Sue Dykes.
Insight meditation uses mindfulness to develop more steadiness and calm, so that we can see some common thought-patterns that create stress and distress, and learn how to help those patterns release. As a result of that deeper self-understanding, we can live with more ease, happiness and peace.
Over six consecutive Wednesday evening meetings, we will explore some of the key techniques of insight meditation. Topics covered will include:
- Mindfulness of the body, including sitting postures and walking meditation
- Mindfulness of thoughts and emotions, including methods to reduce afflictive thought patterns and strengthen beneficial ones
- Mindfulness in daily life, including mindful speaking and listening
- Practices for cultivating kindness, compassion and self-compassion.
Cost for all six sessions: $60 plus donation,* or for people experiencing financial stress, $30 plus donation.
