The Art of Positive Thinking

Each class is self-contained, so you are welcome to join at any point.
Our classes begin with a brief introduction, followed by an initial guided meditation to settle the mind and create a feeling of inner peace. This is followed by a talk on an aspect of meditation practice related to the series topic, and concludes with a guided meditation related to the talk.
After each class, you are invited to participate in a Q&A session, discussion and social time.
