Change Your Life with Meditation (Oak Park)

Change your life from the inside out in 2024! Meditation is a practice of training the mind to be peaceful, positive and happy. By practicing meditation, you can gradually learn to identify and let go of your negative habits of mind that cause pain and problems, and cultivate positive states of mind that lead to peace and happiness for yourself and others.

Join us for this special evening talk and guided meditation with our main teacher and Buddhist monk, Gen Zamling, to learn about how meditation can help you create the life you long for. Enjoy this talk on its own, or as an introduction to a 9-week series of classes called "Become a Better Meditator."

No previous experience is needed, and absolutely everyone is welcome!
