The Anapanasati Sutta is the Buddha's teaching on mindfulness of breathing. It presents a systematic approach to using awareness of the natural breath as a powerful foundation for calm and steadiness. As the teaching unfolds, it offers a profound framework for embracing and investigating the full range of human experience, leading to greater inner freedom. This practice is both practical and transformative, supporting a life of calm, wisdom, and insight in formal meditation and everyday life.
In each class session, guided and silent meditation periods will be complemented by reflection and a discussion period.
