Dear all,

Mid-Atlantic Vipassana is organizing meditation courses for children and teenagers on 26th and 27th of August. This is a rare opportunity for your kids to learn the technique of Anapana.

Anapana is the first step in the practice of Vipassana, wonderful teaching of Great son of Nepal, the Buddha. It is the observation of natural, normal respiration, a simple technique that helps develop concentration of the mind. In this technique, breath is taken as a tool of concentration of the mind. They are taught to focus their mind on the inhaling and exhaling breaths. It is easy to learn, objective and scientific. It has a profound appeal to people of all backgrounds, of every religion or no religion, from every part of the world.

The aim of the course is to introduce the children to Anapana meditation. With practice, meditation students gain mastery over their impulses and actions, becoming calmer and more concentrated. They develop a better understanding of themselves and how their minds work; gaining an inner strength that helps them choose right actions over wrong ones.

The course is designed in such a way that every child would have fun during the course. The course includes Anapana instructions and practice for about 15/20 minutes, crafts projects, games, story time, and much more. A simple vegetarian meal and snacks at breaks are provided. There is no fee to attend the course since Vipassana teachers and old students of Vipassana are providing the service. However, such courses run by the donation of old-meditation-students of this tradition. After completion of the course your kids may donate with their happy mind, which is not mandatory.

If you want to teach rationalism to your kids ....... this is the best opportunity.

If you want your kids to think scientifically ..... try here.

I have tried myself; it is so pragmatic, scientific and result oriented.
