The Limitless Benefits of Meditation
In our classes, retreats, and study programs, our teachers provide the tools and confidence to establish a meditation practice that will grow and improve. The main purpose of meditation is to train the mind to improve our inner qualities, such as patience, love and kindness – while reducing thinking patterns that cause unhappiness, stress and anxiety.
When the turbulence of distracting thoughts subsides and our mind becomes still, a deep happiness and contentment naturally arises from within. This feeling of contentment and well-being helps us to cope with the busyness and difficulties of daily life.
