About this event
"I'd love to learn meditation... but I don't know where to begin."
Have you ever thought:
- My mind is too restless to meditate.
- I'm too busy to find the time to meditate.
We often think meditation requires a quiet room, a perfect posture, and a completely calm mind.
But what if it doesn't?
What if your morning coffee, a traffic jam, a busy meeting, a looming deadline, or even a few spare minutes could all become opportunities to meditate?
In this workshop, internationally renowned meditation teacher, TED speaker, and bestselling author Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche will show that meditation is far simpler—and far more accessible—than most people imagine.
Rather than stopping your thoughts or emptying your mind, you'll learn how to transform everyday experiences—including stress, emotions, challenges, and even a busy mind—into opportunities to cultivate awareness, clarity, and inner well-being.
Whether you're new to meditation or already have an established practice, Anytime Anywhere Meditation (AAM) offers simple, practical methods to help you integrate meditation into daily life—so you can practice anytime, anywhere.
