Women+ Class
Second Saturday of the month 2-5pm
Give what you can, suggested donation £13
Theme for 2026: Path as Energy, Energy as the Path - energetic approaches to Dharma practice
Please feel warmly invited to the Women+ Class! We are a big team of order members and mitras and the class is a great chance to spend time with sangha.
Although open to all levels of experience, the Women+ Class is particularly suited for mitras, as an opportunity to spend time with NLBC Order members and the Mitra sangha, and a great way for those of you who have finished Mitra study to spend time with other committed women+ at the NLBC.
The Dharma can be spoken of in terms of Wisdom, Compassion, or Energy. In 2026 we’ll be looking at the Dharma through the lens of energy, exploring energy as an integral aspect of the path through ethics, meditation, symbols, and direct energetic experience in the body.
Led by Karunagita, Shraddhasara and Darsavini, with a team including Dhinita, Supaksini, Subhadri, Annie, Marie and Paula.
April 11th: Exploring the Stupa, with Darsavini and team
The Stupa is an elemental, meditative, ritual and architectural symbol for the transformation of energy.
In the class this month, we’ll explore the history and symbolism of the stupa, and try out the Stupa Meditation practice, a simple mindfulness meditation that uses colour, shape and an imaginative connection to the elements to cultivate a sense of presence, connection and beauty.
There be will be guided meditation, reflection and group discussion.

Open to all women (gender diverse friendly).
