Meditation Talk: How to be more focused

Meditation Talk: How to be more focused

Concentration is the nature of a peaceful mind. When our mind is concentrated it is relaxed, peaceful, alert and we feel happy.

When meditating, the degree to which we can concentrate determines the effectiveness of our meditations. Therefore, in meditation, as in everyday life, the ability to overcome distractions is very important. In this short course you will learn how to develop and improve your concentration, how to overcome your distractions and how to cultivate your ability to concentrate through training in meditation.

You will also learn how mindfulness, alertness and concentration work together to improve your mental peace and well-being. Through cultivating your concentration, you will be able to accomplish all your goals more easily, calmly and effectively.

The event takes place in the beautiful hidden gem, Shaw House, located in tranquil surroundings on the north edge of Newbury.

Two one-hour sessions of guided meditations and practical advice.

Everybody is welcome to attend this course, regardless of experience. This course will consist of practical teachings and short guided meditations that will give rise to a peaceful feeling in the mind and improve your ability to live a peaceful life.
