Children's Courses
Specially adapted courses give children and young people
between the ages of 8 and 18 the opportunity to learn Anapana
meditation (the first stage in Vipassana) during a residential
weekend at Dhamma Dipa. The weekends also include physical
and creative activities.
Anapana meditation helps develop concentration of the mind
and can have many benefits for children. Many experience a
positive change in outlook, behaviour and attitude. They develop
an inner strength that helps choose right and appropriate
actions over wrong actions. Many also find that their memory
has strengthened and they are more able to overcome worries
and calm their mind.
For dates: see Course
schedule.
All application forms must be accompanied by a parent/guardian
form, which must be fill out and return to the centre.
