The Sunderland group meets on Thursdays 5pm to around 6.30 pm, (with breaks over Christmas and Easter periods and continuing to the end of June). In 2007-08, we start on October 11th.

We meet in the Priestman Building of the University. This is on Green Terrace, at the bottom of Chester Road, near the Leisure centre. There is a multi-storey car park at the other end of Green Terrace. if coming by Metro, get off at the University stop. Come out of the station on the side facing the University Library. Turn right, down the path, and under the underpass. The Building facing you is Priestman Building.To find the entrance, go to the right hand side of the building.

We meet in room C.24: come up the steps into the building, then up the stairs, right at the top and go along the corridor, turn right at the end, along the next corridor, right at the end of this, and C.24 is on your right part way down.

There is no charge for the class.

Each class consists of a talk, and perhaps a discussion, then a guided meditation, which teaches step by step way of developing greater calm, inner strength and awareness through giving attention to the breath. No previous experience in meditation is needed. After the first week, there is the opportunity for one to one discussion with the teacher on the application of the method.

There is another class nearby in Durham City, which meets on Mondays at 7.30pm
