Overcoming Anxiety - Meditation Workshop
Event Information
About this event
Half Day workshop
With Resident Teacher Kelsang Shechog
Anxiety and stress are an increasingly common problem for people in our busy, modern world. These states of mind prevent us from experiencing peace and enjoying life.
Meditation is an effective way to combat negative states of mind and create a sense of mental freedom. By gaining experience of Buddhist meditation techniques and positive thinking we can learn to control our mind, rather than allowing our mind to control us.
On this day course we will learn how to identify and remove the causes of anxiety and worry, and enjoy a more balanced and happy life.

We hold regular meditation classes, courses and retreats in various locations: Mt Eden, Takapuna, Titirangi, Devonport, CBD, Onehunga and Tauranga.
We're here to help people discover the benefits of meditation and to solve their daily problems through a special presentation of Buddha’s teachings that we call “modern Buddhism”. Our teachings are clear, practical and very accessible to modern people. You will find that with modern Buddhism you will be able to reduce stress, improve relationships and find more meaning in life. Everyone is welcome to join our activities, including those who are just curious about meditation or Buddhism.
No special clothing is necessary, and we usually meditate in chairs, making it accessible and comfortable for everyone. Refunds are possible up to 1 day prior to event, less a small admin fee.
