Calm Kids – Childrens Meditation Class – 12 Oct
Sat 12 Oct 2pm – 3.15pm
The number one thing we think when we begin to practise Dharma and meditation later in life is: “I wish I had started doing this when I was younger!”
Children of all ages and temperaments can learn how meditation can help them to be calm, happy and mentally strong. They will enjoy creating and exploring a magical inner world that nourishes them and helps them deal with difficult feelings, situations and relationships. Discovering how to enjoy inner peace through meditation is a skill that will bring life-long benefit to your child and family.
This class aims to develop and nurture positive qualities in children through child centred games, crafts and short bite-sized meditations, based around a Buddhist theme such as love, kindness and patience.
Meditation in particular is a simple, effective method that over time helps children to be more relaxed, happy and confident. These classes are offered by our resident teacher Gen Tubchen, who has many years of experience working with children.
Meditation is a fantastic tool for children to learn and get better at, so they can call upon it if they ever feel worried, stressed or just unhappy in any way.
All families are welcome, no previous experience of Buddhism or meditation is necessary. Children must be accompanied by an adult. The adults are welcome to join in with the meditation. The classes are designed for P1 – P7 aged children.
