What happens during a Meditation?   

Angela begins each session with a short introduction to correct meditation posture. She explains about the two categories of meditation: single pointed and analytical, both of which she leads practitioners through. She gives a brief background to the history of Buddhism and the introduction of it coming to the West then begins a 10-20 minute guided meditation. 

Various meditations that practitioners learn are: breathing, compassion, giving and taking (Tong Lin) mindfulness (Vipassana), inner child, impermanence, wisdom, death and dying as well as working with colours, visualizations of flowers, light, water. There is usually a break of 10 minutes then a short discussion from questions practitioners are having. A second guided or silent meditation of 10-20 minutes ends the class.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?  

The answer to this is entirely up to you. Working with Angela in getting in touch with your spiritual self may or may not come quickly. One on one meditation instruction can be just one session with a follow up a few weeks later. Monthly sessions after that are advised to discuss issues arising and directions to take. A short daily meditation at home is recommended.
