Changing the Habits of a Lifetime with Clive Holmes

Some say the whole purpose of meditation is to restore balance by letting go of the harmful habits that cause us suffering.   

 

We can learn to change the ones that are unhelpful, shifting our attitude in a helpful direction. Join us on the 22nd and the 23rd September to find out how.

More information here.
