What could be simpler than bringing forward the peace and joy from inside your own heart? Although it is simple, meditation does require practice. In the beginning, it helps if we can use some techniques to calm the mind and reconnect with our heart. The meditation classes offer a broad range of techniques including guided visualisations, breathing exercises, mantras and spiritual music. Once meditation is interwoven into your daily life, you will reach a point where technique is less important. Even then, when you adjust your lifestyle to be more compatible with your higher goals you will also find it easier to meditate. At every step in the journey our instructors are happy to share with you their own experiences, tips and support About Our Teacher, Sri Chinmoy Sri Chinmoy was born in Bengal (now Bangladesh), India, in 1931. He spent several years meditating, writing poetry and practising athletics at the Sri Aurobindo Ashram in Pondicherry, India. In 1964, Sri Chinmoy envisioned a worldwide family of spiritual centres where those who love peace and harmony could share their mutual inspiration.
