The Mind At Ease

with Venerable Aileen

The Buddhist path develops four transformative qualities—kindness, compassion, joy, and equanimity—known as the brahmavihāras, or “sublime homes.” Qualities we each have, without limit, we just need to recognise and cultivate them. These innate capacities can become steady supports for concentration, insight, and responding to suffering in challenging times. We will explore practices to cultivate each quality and release the obstacles that limit wholehearted living and meaningful engagement with the world.

We recommend attending both days, but you’re welcome to join for just one.
Open to everyone and beginner-friendly
