Meditation Classes for Everyone
It may seem like we are bombarded with messages suggesting that happiness can be found here or there, with this or that, but we all know that is not the case. Happiness is a state of mind, so it can only be produced by the conditions of the mind.
Working with our mind, we can change our own world. Learn how to have a positive outlook that is realistic and reliable in this special series of meditation classes.
Dharma for Kids
This class is designed for children in kindergarten and above. We also have a video link for parents with preschoolers, toddlers and infants. Each class will include a short meditation, a Buddhist lesson, and activities to help children increase their patience, respect for others and loving kindness.
