Letting Go of Overthinking
Sat 9th May, 10am – 1pm
with Buddhist Teacher, Mike Whitaker
Our minds are often filled with constant chatter—racing from one thought to the next, analysing, planning, and worrying. This mental noise can leave us feeling tired, anxious, and disconnected from the present moment.
In this course, we’ll explore how to let go of overthinking and experience the clarity and ease that come from a calm, focused mind. Through simple yet powerful meditation practices, you’ll learn how to reduce distractions, quiet inner restlessness, and reconnect with a sense of deep inner peace—one you can carry with you into daily life.
You will learn how to:
- Experience deep mental stillness and inner clarity
- Reduce anxiety, distraction, and inner restlessness
- Gain tools to stay calm, centred, and focused in daily life

Understand the Truth of Reality
Sat 6th Jun, 10am – 1pm
with Resident Teacher, Gen Kelsang Chogma
‘In Buddhism, emptiness has great meaning. It is the real nature of things, and is a very profound and meaningful object. If we realize emptiness directly we will attain permanent liberation from all the sufferings of this life and countless future lives; there is no greater meaning than this’.
From How to Transform Your Life by Venerable Geshe Kelksang Gyatso.
By meditating on the true nature of things, emptiness, we can realize that everything is a mere appearance to the mind, like a dream. Thinking in this way our wisdom increases, we can let go of grasping, heal ourselves and live lightly in our world.
This course will be based on the chapter ‘Ultimate Bodhichitta’ in the books Modern Buddhism and How to Transform Your Life. You can download these as free ebooks here.
