Tuesday Meditation Class 7 – 8.15pm

Know Your Own Mind

During this 4 week series you will gain a deeper and more precise understanding into how your mind works. By training in meditation as a tool, you can begin to know through your own direct experience what is going on in your mind, as well as exploring its deeper nature, power and potential.

Through understanding how your mind functions you will begin to see how your mind is constantly creating your reality and how by changing your mind you can change your world, your experiences and your relationships with others.

The course will include guided meditations and practical advice for developing positive mental habits that bring greater confidence, skill, mental peace and happiness.

Our courses are supported by the 2024 Mental Health and Well Being Fund for Aberdeen and are perfect for supporting good mental health and taking steps to solve inner problems at an early stage.

These courses draw on the timeless wisdom of Buddhism but are open to everyone and suitable for people of every background.

This course will be based on extracts from the book How to Understand the Mind.

Mar 5: What actually is mindfulness?

Mar 12: Where do our feelings come from?

Mar 19: How does our mind create our reality?

Mar 26: How to realise your full potential

The Bliss of Concentration

Nowadays we have so many distractions that it is rare to enjoy even a few moments of peace. Through deepening our concentration we increase the power of our mind, our energy, our ability to fulfill our wishes and our inner peace. With this new found concentration we will be able to significantly improve our meditation experience and overall inner peace, happiness and well being.

Make your meditations powerful and effective through joining this 3-week concentration course that is also perfect preparation for the Bliss of Concentration weekend retreat in Portsoy which benefits from training in concentration in daily practice at home.

This course will be taught by Gen Kelsang Tubchen, the resident teacher at KMC Aberdeen. She has many years of experience in teaching concentration and guiding meditation retreats.

If you are unable to attend the course in person, it is possible to join online as a member.
