My intention is to teach the foundations of meditation and mindfulness (theory, a range of practices and contemplations) in a way that honours the depth of the spiritual traditions that they have come from and is tailored to the individuals who are coming to learn.
My classes and courses are grounded in the western Insight Meditation tradition, which comes from Buddhist roots but it’s not necessary to be Buddhist to practice in this tradition. Insight meditation is compatible with western psychology and there has been a lot of research done to develop a scientific basis for these practices. I have also been trained as an MBSR teacher so have a sound understanding of the scientific rationale and evidence associated with meditation practices. For further understanding of the Insight Meditation tradition please see:
Meditation and Mindfulness Services
Anne runs regular courses and classes focused on Foundations of Meditation and Mindfulness, Brahmivaharas (cultivation of the qualities of the heart) and other areas of meditation and contemplation.
Insight meditation practices have the intention of reducing stress and suffering and cultivating clarity, calm, wisdom, compassion and freedom of heart and mind.
Please see “EVENTS” for upcoming courses.
