Half-day course ~ The Art of Positive Thinking

The Art of Positive Thinking

Half-day course with Judi Watson

The ability to think positively doesn't come naturally for many of us. We easily get caught up in our negative habits of mind, which take us in the wrong internal direction from where we want to be. The good news is that positive thinking is something we can train in. Buddha was a master at training the mind, and through following the practical advice he gave, we can also train in the art of positive thinking, eventually developing a mind that is positive not just some of the time, but all of the time. Everyone has this potential.

This course is held in the serene, spacious, and comfortable meditation room at Kadampa Meditation Centre Canada. In between sessions, you can enjoy complimentary refreshments and the opportunity to ask questions. Our Temple shop also offers a variety of books and other meditation materials to support your journey toward greater understanding and tranquility.

No previous experience of meditation is required. Everybody welcome!

  • These classes are held in the peaceful, spacious and comfortable meditation room at Kadampa Meditation Centre Canada. We also have many books and other meditation materials available at our Temple shop which can help you deepen your understanding of the meditation experience through further study.

  • Parking spaces are limited in the area. For this reason, it is easier to come by public transport if this is an option for you.

    It is possible to find parking in the nearby streets. However, it is generally not possible to park for more than 3 hours during the day. It is necessary to have a permit in order to park overnight in the area.

    Temporary day parking spots nearby: Some options are available for temporary day parking spots nearby, for example with the following companies: Green P Parking, Spot Hero.

    Temporary on-street permit parking in Toronto: Provided space is available, a temporary parking permit may be purchased by residents and their guests to park a motor vehicle on a street designated under the permit parking program of the city of Toronto. This program generally services those residential areas where driveways are not common. If you choose this option, please avoid parking on Crawford St. if possible. You may get a ticket as it is complaint driven and the residents have limited space for their own street parking on Crawford St.
