Four ways to reduce anxiety
Do you suffer from anxiety? Are you constantly worrying about one thing or another, and finding if difficult to enjoy life?
In our modern world it is increasingly difficult to ward off anxious states of mind. Not long after one worry passes, another one quickly arises to take its place.
Fortunately, you’re not an intrinsically anxious person – no one is. Anxiety is something you can reduce and overcome.
By growing your practical wisdom, understanding how your mind works and gaining experience of Buddhist meditation techniques, you can learn to control our mind, rather than your mind controlling you. Through this you’ll be able to let go of worry, overcome anxious minds and develop a sense of peace and mental freedom that is absolutely priceless.
In this series of classes you will learn four simple, practical methods to reduce your anxiety and, through developing a joyful, regular meditation practice, eventually release your mind from its painful grip.

Wake up smiling
Do you wake up smiling each day? Feeling joyful and positive about the day ahead? Sadly, for many of us it’s quite uncommon to have this experience. Even though we wish to be happy each and every day of our life, our mind can be habitually trapped in narrow, uninspired, often-negative ways of thinking. Such thoughts leave us feeling tired, dissatisfied and wondering whether this is all that life has to offer.
We can all turn this experience around though and learn to wake up with a light and happy heart. You can learn to wake up smiling.
During this series of classes, you’ll gain understandings and learn effective meditations that enable you to greet each day feeling positive and inspired. Discover how it is possible to turn every encounter into an opportunity to deepen your appreciation of life and the people around you.
