In a world of distraction, we need the peace of concentration.
Discover the potential within your mind for inner stillness, focus, clarity and strength. These are some of the important benefits of developing concentration.
We can improve our concentration gradually through training in meditation and mindfulness. While all of Heruka Center's meditation classes and retreats offer great opportunities to train in concentration, the following courses are offered regularly to help participants improve this important mental ability.
Ranging from retreats to workshops, these are organized below according to the level of challenge involved. Everyone is welcome.

This unique training in concentration leads us to a special quality of mind called “tranquil abiding,” a deeper level of concentration that arises through training in meditation in a systematic way over many sessions. Tranquil abiding is a superior state of peace which brings us great power to make progress in our spiritual journey.
