Rooted in ancient Buddhist wisdom yet fully accessible to all, this is not a religious programme. The book and online course are helpful resources, but they are not required to take part in the local practice group.

Basic goodness

Ground your life in the dignity and basic goodness already present.

Difficult emotions

Work with habitual patterns and emotional difficulty with more kindness.

Daily stability

Meet life's challenges with stability, clarity, compassion, and ease.

Weekly format

Read, meditate, contemplate, integrate

Each weekly session includes readings and videos to deepen understanding, meditation exercises to enhance experience, and contemplation to help integrate learning into daily life.
