Anytime Anywhere Meditation – 5 Thursdays in October 2025. 7.30-9.00pm

Meditation doesn’t have to mean sitting still for hours or retreating from everyday life. In this 5-week Anytime Anywhere Meditation course, you’ll discover how awareness, compassion, and wisdom can be part of ordinary moments — anytime, anywhere. Whether you’re new to meditation or looking to refresh your practice, this course offers a simple, practical, and inspiring approach.

Join me for Anytime Anywhere Meditation (AAM) — a 5-week journey into the heart of meditation practice. This accessible, down-to-earth program was created by meditation master Mingyur Rinpoche and is designed for people from all walks of life.

You’ll learn simple, flexible ways to bring meditation into daily activities — whether you’re completely new or returning to practice. Together we’ll explore how awareness, love & compassion, and wisdom are not things we have to create, but qualities we already have.

Each week includes guided meditations, video teachings from Mingyur Rinpoche, interactive reflections, and time for Q&A. You’ll also receive suggestions for simple daily practices to try between sessions.

By the end of this course, you will:

• Recognise that meditation is a tool for self-discovery, not self-improvement.
• Learn how short periods of practice can naturally grow into a regular habit.
• Discover how to integrate meditation into busy daily life — even during challenges.
• Explore how awareness, love & compassion, and wisdom work together.
• Begin building a personal practice that suits your own lifestyle.
