Most people know meditation is beneficial, yet find it hard to maintain a regular practice. This series deepens your understanding of meditation and teaches practical techniques for overcoming distraction and settling into deep, absorbed meditation. As your meditation strengthens, so will your focus and clarity in daily life — benefiting every area of your life. Although taught as a series, each class is self-contained; attend as many as you wish.
