Council is helping to improve the community’s health and wellbeing by bringing free talks and Buddhist mediation sessions to the local Library.

Central Coast Libraries regularly host meditation sessions facilitated by a local Khedruje Kadampa Buddhist teacher.

These sessions give the community an opportunity to experience mediation and learn about the Buddhist way of life firsthand.

Council’s Library Services Manager, Ms Andrea Edwards said, the Buddhist sessions have proven to be extremely popular with local residents and shows there is a strong need for this type of event in the region.

“Meditation has been proven to lessen worry, reduce stress and improve optimism and that is certainly what we want for our community,” said Ms Edwards.

“If you are looking for ways to destress, improve your quality of life and develop inner peace meditation just might be what you need.

“The next two sessions will talk about overcoming stress and solving life’s problems in this modern world we live in,” Ms Edwards added.

“Meditation can be practiced by any member of the community, no matter what race, culture, gender or age so come and join us to experience a new way of life as everyone is welcome.“

The next Khedruje Kadampa sessions are on 9 November at 2.30pm at Tuggerah Library and 6 December at 10.30am at Lake Haven Library.

Booking for these sessions are essential and can be made by calling the library branches directly. Each session is free but a gold coin donation to the Khedruje Kadampa centre is welcomed.
