Learn to Meditate

Meditation for a Kind Heart

Mondays | February 1 - 22 | 6:30 - 7:00pm

with Joe Kovaz, Buddhist teacher of KMC Boston

In this class, Joe will provide the opportunity for both beginners and experienced meditators to learn and review the basic principles of meditation and to apply them and gain personal experience of them.

This class aims at supporting and encouraging participants to begin and/or stabilize a regular meditation practice at home.  In this way, participants can deepen their own meditation experiences and meditation practice and find ways to make it very practical in their daily lives.

Consistent attention will be given to the relationship between formal meditation practice and daily activities during the meditation break, and participants will gain practical experience of how these two are mutually supportive.

If you wish to continue your practice at home, you can find the Meditations for a Kind Heart HERE as an MP3 to guide yourself.

Everyone is welcome!

Class Topics 

October 5 - Start with the basics

October 12 - 5 keys to unlock the door to inner peace

October 19 - Pacify mental excitement

October 26 - Like a still ocean

TEACHER

Joe Kovaz was first introduced to the New Kadampa Tradition at Kadampa Meditation Center South Carolina in 2009.

After several years of study in General Program classes and formally in Foundation Program and Teacher Training Program classes, Joe began teaching meditation classes at KMC South Carolina several years ago.  Joe especially cherishes the opportunity to teach meditation classes to beginners and seeks ways to make his classes very practical and meaningful for participants.  

Joe and his family recently moved to Maine where Joe teaches science and math at a public charter high school.  Joe's partner, Susan is also an experienced Dharma teacher and she teaches Kid’s Class regularly.
