About Anytime Anywhere Meditation - World Premiere:
Anytime Anywhere Meditation is a new programme to make meditation practice accessible and effective. This workshop, the official launch of the programme, will be taught by Mingyur Rinpoche and will focus on the transformative effect of meditation.

There will also be panel discussions with world-renowned guest speakers and exponents of meditation, who will share anecdotes and scientific evidence detailing the benefits of developing a mediation practice.
Mingyur Rinpoche will be joined by Matthieu Ricard for a special opening event on Friday 30th June, and panel discussions, guided meditations and Q&A sessions will take place throughout the weekend. Other special guests include Matthieu Ricard
