The classes are organised as short courses, usually around 3 or 4 weeks long and last just over an hour.  You can attend the whole course or simply drop in whenever you can as each class is self-contained

You don’t need to bring anything with you and don’t need any previous experience of meditations or the class subjects.  We sit on chairs for the class and meditations in a comfortable relaxed atmosphere; so all you need to do is turn up and enjoy.

We start all classes with the Liberating Prayer and a short guided breathing meditation to take ourselves away from the ordinary.  You can join in or just listen to the prayer, it’s up to you.

We’ll then have some practical Buddhist teachings followed by a guided meditation based upon them; and finish with some advice on how to put the teachings into practise in daily life

If you have any questions, please get in touch via info@heartjewel.org.uk and we’ll be delighted to help

‘Meditation on love is very powerful. Even if our concentration is not very strong we accumulate a vast amount of merit. By meditating on love we create the cause to be reborn as a human or a god, to have a beautiful body in the future, and to be loved and respected by many people. Love is the great protector, protecting us from anger and jealousy, and from harm inflicted by spirits.’
