Family Meditation Course

HELD AT KAMALASHILA TIBETAN BUDDHIST CENTRE
​30 July – 27 August 2025

I have shared yoga and breath activities with my five-year-old granddaughter, Toby from an early age and I was keen for her to join the Family Meditation online course. Toby’s parents committed time each week to the course that is just finishing now and it has been delightful to hear about how much they all enjoyed the experience. 

Toby’s comments on the course are “I really like the meditation course. The thing I like most is the story. I liked learning about Buddha; he is a kind person. I learnt that when you keep your back straight it tells your mind that you want to be awake. We played games and I had a good time, and I want it to keep going”.

Toby’s parents also appreciated the opportunities the course provided. They commented that “This is something we have really enjoyed doing together. It’s a lovely way to end the day and calm all our minds. This has become one of our favourite moments in a busy week”. 

Participation in the course has been a great introduction to meditation and Buddhism. Importantly the course has provided an opportunity to take some time out from busy schedules to spend time together in reflection.

 I am very grateful to Zara and to Drogmi Buddhist Institute for enabling my family to have this experience.
