Introduction to the Art of Sitting Meditation
Saturday 24th February, 10am - 11am, free of charge. All welcome
Meditation is a way of learning to be with the dynamic vitality of the mind. We can train our mind to be with whatever thoughts and feelings arise without being overwhelmed by them. But how do we do that??
Please bring along any questions, hesitations, and doubts!
Venue: Nyima Tashi Buddhist Centre, 717 New North Rd, Mt Albert

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
