What’s it like to do a Course here?Sometimes our visitors feel moved to post a review of our Centre and classes, and they generally seem to like what they find here. We don’t ask for reviews, but are grateful when people take the time to share their reactions, verbally or online, and whether they’re positive, negative or a bit mixed.
We recently heard from Rachael, who went a bit further and wrote two blog posts on her experience of doing two six-week evening courses here in 2022. Many thanks to Rachael for letting us share her thoughtful pieces:

What I learned from a Compassion CourseFollowing on from the introduction I signed up for a going deeper course on the topic of compassion. Earlier in the year I wrote about my journey of learning to practice compassion. So it seemed serendipitous that the first going deeper course covered this vital topic.
The experience of attending the Buddhism centre and practicing meditation was likened to a meditation gym. I really liked this analogy, as over six weeks I learned how to build my compassion muscle. This post will share a bit about what I learned and some reflections on how the practice impacted me , , , Read more on Medium
