Think Better, Feel Better: A practical six-week meditation course for everyday life

Our thoughts shape our world. They influence how we feel, how we experience ourselves and others, and ultimately how we navigate life.

By learning to think in healthier ways, we naturally begin to feel better, gaining the inner strength to handle life’s challenges and the ability to support those around us with greater understanding and compassion.

Through the transformative practice of meditation we can calm our mind and develop positive thoughts, leading to healthier emotions and a more peaceful, resilient mind.

These classes include two guided meditations and a practical talk on a different topic each week. After each class, there is time for Q&A.

Each class is self-contained, so you are welcome to join at any time. No previous experience is required.

May 5: Getting to know your mind

May 12: How thoughts shape your world

May 19: No class due to Victoria Day

May 26: Think better, feel better

June 2 : How negative thoughts take hold

June 9: Breaking free from negative thought patterns

June 16: Staying calm and clear amidst the uncertainty of our times
