Gönpo. \nSet-up\nThe series is divided in 4 modules with each 4 meditations. You will receive guidance to reflect and practice during the week in your daily family life. No prior meditation experience needed.

Please contact us if it might be an obstacle for you. \nFacilitator\nVen. Gönpo is  an accredited FDCW facilitator and a Buddhist monk based in Australia. He  discovered Buddhism as a child through martial arts movies and TV shows\, this was the inspiration for the childhood dream of becoming a wandering kung fu monk. It was a few decades before part of that dream could be realized with many other life adventures distracting him from the spiritual path in his teens and twenties. \nIt wasn’t until he was in his thirties that Gönpo began to really understand the power of Buddhist teachings when he used them to navigate the emotional roller-coaster of life’s many experiences such as a marriage break down and raising children alone. Fortunately\, due the kindness of his teachers and great good karma\, after his children finished school\, Gönpo was able to fulfil the long-held dream of becoming a monk\, albeit without the kung fu. Ending a 20-year career as a high school teacher of languages\, he become a wandering monk spending time studying and meditating in Europe\, India and Nepal before returning to his hometown\, Brisbane\, to take up the role of Spiritual Care Practitioner at Karuna Hospice Services\, giving care and support to people with life limiting illnesses and their families. \nIn his time as a school teacher\, it was the feedback from students around mindfulness practices and life lessons that had the biggest impact on Gönpo\, motivating him to become a 16 Guidelines for a Happy Life facilitator. In his sessions\, Gönpo encourages discussion and deep engagement in the topics\, challenging participants to examine their own ways of thinking. Through understanding how we are now\, we are better equipped to develop the habits that will bring us closer to how we want to be\, interacting with our own minds and the people around us in ways that will make us and the communities we live in\, happier and healthier. \nMore info\nFor more information and to register please visit the Maitreya Institute website

True happiness is based on peace.” ― Thich Nhat Hanh \nAbout the Sessions\nJoin us online for an hour to pause\, center\, and restore to a happier and more peaceful mind to support you in being a bit more resilient in a world which does not always make sense anymore. These guided meditations are to help you calm your mind\, explore your own nature and develop a more peaceful perception on life. When you are well with yourself\, you will be more able to be well with others and the world.  \nThese meditations are very practical\, they are not within a religious context\, so they are suitable for people of different beliefs\, ages and abilities\, for beginners as well as for those with more experience.  \n\n\nWhat are the meditations based on?\nThey are based on a set of values and principles aimed at helping individuals cultivate a more peaceful and meaningful life.

SUMMARY:Meditations & Reflections for Mindful Parenting Organized by Maitreya Institute

Gönpo. \nSet-up\nThe series is divided in 4 modules with each 4 meditations. You will receive guidance to reflect and practice during the week in your daily family life. No prior meditation experience needed. Just curiosity\, and a willingness to show up for yourself and your family. \nPractical information\n\nDates: Every 2 weeks on Sunday morning – Oct 26\, 9th Nov\, 23 Nov and 7 Dec. . \nTiming: 10.00 – 11.00 am\nLocation: online only via Zoom\nLanguage: English \nReflection materials and recordings: you will be given reflection questions and guidance to reflect for yourself and also with your family and a link to the audio recordings of the meditations.\nLast-minute registration: Please also send an email to amsterdam@maitreya.nl\, to ensure we can send you the necessary Zoom link in time to join the class.\n\n\n\nHow you can Practice Generosity\n\nDāna (generosity) is one of the cornerstones of the Buddhist path. With your donation we uphold our Dharma center & program\, which is managed entirely by volunteers. \nThe suggested donation for the 4 meditations €25. \nFor students and people with low income\, the suggested donation is €15.

Please contact us if it might be an obstacle for you. \nFacilitator\nVen. Gönpo is  an accredited FDCW facilitator and a Buddhist monk based in Australia. He  discovered Buddhism as a child through martial arts movies and TV shows\, this was the inspiration for the childhood dream of becoming a wandering kung fu monk. It was a few decades before part of that dream could be realized with many other life adventures distracting him from the spiritual path in his teens and twenties. \nIt wasn’t until he was in his thirties that Gönpo began to really understand the power of Buddhist teachings when he used them to navigate the emotional roller-coaster of life’s many experiences such as a marriage break down and raising children alone. Fortunately\, due the kindness of his teachers and great good karma\, after his children finished school\, Gönpo was able to fulfil the long-held dream of becoming a monk\, albeit without the kung fu. Ending a 20-year career as a high school teacher of languages\, he become a wandering monk spending time studying and meditating in Europe\, India and Nepal before returning to his hometown\, Brisbane\, to take up the role of Spiritual Care Practitioner at Karuna Hospice Services\, giving care and support to people with life limiting illnesses and their families. \nIn his time as a school teacher\, it was the feedback from students around mindfulness practices and life lessons that had the biggest impact on Gönpo\, motivating him to become a 16 Guidelines for a Happy Life facilitator. In his sessions\, Gönpo encourages discussion and deep engagement in the topics\, challenging participants to examine their own ways of thinking. Through understanding how we are now\, we are better equipped to develop the habits that will bring us closer to how we want to be\, interacting with our own minds and the people around us in ways that will make us and the communities we live in\, happier and healthier. \nMore info\nFor more information and to register please visit the Maitreya Institute website

Gönpo. \nSet-up\nThe series is divided in 4 modules with each 4 meditations. You will receive guidance to reflect and practice during the week in your daily family life. No prior meditation experience needed. Just curiosity\, and a willingness to show up for yourself and your family. \nPractical information\n\nDates: Every 2 weeks on Sunday morning – Oct 26\, 9th Nov\, 23 Nov and 7 Dec. . \nTiming: 10.00 – 11.00 am\nLocation: online only via Zoom\nLanguage: English \nReflection materials and recordings: you will be given reflection questions and guidance to reflect for yourself and also with your family and a link to the audio recordings of the meditations.\nLast-minute registration: Please also send an email to amsterdam@maitreya.nl\, to ensure we can send you the necessary Zoom link in time to join the class.\n\n\n\nHow you can Practice Generosity\n\nDāna (generosity) is one of the cornerstones of the Buddhist path.

Please contact us if it might be an obstacle for you. \nFacilitator\nVen. Gönpo is  an accredited FDCW facilitator and a Buddhist monk based in Australia. He  discovered Buddhism as a child through martial arts movies and TV shows\, this was the inspiration for the childhood dream of becoming a wandering kung fu monk. It was a few decades before part of that dream could be realized with many other life adventures distracting him from the spiritual path in his teens and twenties. \nIt wasn’t until he was in his thirties that Gönpo began to really understand the power of Buddhist teachings when he used them to navigate the emotional roller-coaster of life’s many experiences such as a marriage break down and raising children alone. Fortunately\, due the kindness of his teachers and great good karma\, after his children finished school\, Gönpo was able to fulfil the long-held dream of becoming a monk\, albeit without the kung fu. Ending a 20-year career as a high school teacher of languages\, he become a wandering monk spending time studying and meditating in Europe\, India and Nepal before returning to his hometown\, Brisbane\, to take up the role of Spiritual Care Practitioner at Karuna Hospice Services\, giving care and support to people with life limiting illnesses and their families. \nIn his time as a school teacher\, it was the feedback from students around mindfulness practices and life lessons that had the biggest impact on Gönpo\, motivating him to become a 16 Guidelines for a Happy Life facilitator. In his sessions\, Gönpo encourages discussion and deep engagement in the topics\, challenging participants to examine their own ways of thinking. Through understanding how we are now\, we are better equipped to develop the habits that will bring us closer to how we want to be\, interacting with our own minds and the people around us in ways that will make us and the communities we live in\, happier and healthier. \nMore info\nFor more information and to register please visit the Maitreya Institute website

SUMMARY:A Mindful Heart - Sunday in person Community Meditations
DESCRIPTION:About the Sessions\nJoin a wonderful team of facilitators  for a series of Meditations and meaningful discussions organized by Jamyang Buddhist  Centre in Leeds (UK). \nThis series is structured into 1 hour  sessions and is offered on Sundays at 10:30 am GMT. \nFrom January to the end of March the Sunday community meditations will be focusing on ‘A Mindful Heart’. \nInspired by the Creating Compassionate Cultures program (“CCC”) by Pam Cayton\, and developed by the Foundation for Developing Compassion and Wisdom. Grounded in three core pathways of learning: Knowledge\, Strength\, and Compassion.

By exploring the workings of our own minds and the nature of our interdependence with others and the world around us\, we begin to see how deeply connected our inner and outer realities truly are. We examine both logical and scientific perspectives on the nature of the self and our relationships with others. \nWhy joining\nAre you keen to work on your well-being and want to connect with others trying to make their life a little better for themselves and those around them?  \nEach hour-long gathering begins with a soothing meditation to calm your mind\, followed by an inspiring discussion on on a way of being that enriches your everyday life such as interconnection\, empathy\, compassion… We then dive into a focused meditation designed to help you embrace that way of being fully. \nWrap up your morning with a cup of tea and friendly conversation in a welcoming\, relaxed atmosphere.  \nMeet us every Sunday at 10:30 AM and start your week feeling refreshed\, connected\, and inspired. \n\nOpen to all\, beginners and experienced students alike!  No registration required\, absolutely everyone welcome. \n\nThis is the Schedule and Themes of the sessions :\n\nJanuary: \n\n11th: The Pursuit of Happiness\n18th: Understanding how things exist\n25th Developing Healthy Self Confidence\n\nFebruary \n\n1st: Compassion – Opening the heart 8th: Mindfulness\, reflection and critical thinking\n15th: Mindful intention – what do I really want\n22nd: Interconnection\n\nMarch: \n\n1st Embracing Change\n8th Perception\n15th Transforming harmful emotions\n22nd Empathy\n29th Cultivating Compassion\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to Join \n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn Person on Sundays 10:30 to 11:30 with coffee / chat in the café afterwards until 12:00pm. \n\nFor more information please visit the Jamyang Leeds Centre event calendar \nCost\nThis program is offered by donation.
