About Our In-Depth Meditation Workshops

While our regular workshops focus on practical methods for everyday challenges, these in-depth sessions offer an opportunity to explore Buddhist philosophy and meditation in greater detail.

In these workshops, we’ll gain a deeper understanding of Buddhist explanations of topics such as death, faith, Tantric practice and the essence of Modern Buddhism. 

These workshops differ from our regular meditation workshops because they:

  • explore deeper Buddhist teachings
  • offer a more detailed explanation of the philosophy
  • provide time to reflect on how the teachings apply to daily life

Who do they suit?

These workshops are suitable for anyone interested in understanding Buddhist philosophy more deeply. Everyone is welcome to attend, whether you are new to meditation or have been practising for some time.

What happens at an In-Depth Workshop?

Each workshop includes:

• guided meditation
• practical teachings on Buddhist philosophy
• time for reflection and questions

Upcoming Workshops
