Our aim is to contribute to greater mental clarity and compassionate and connected co-existence in the world. \nThis Bodhi project was created by experienced meditation practitioners and teachers as members of the Rigpa world-wide community. \nEach Bodhi event offers: \n\nInspiring short stories from the Buddha’s life\nGuided contemplations\nCreative group discussions\nTime for reflection and contemplation\nDifferent meditation methods\nAnswers to your personal questions\nPractical tips for integrating your meditation practice into daily life\n\n \nAbout Nigel Stone \nNigel has been engaged in Buddhist study and practice since 2004\, including completing Rigpa’s 8-year intensive program. He’s been a Rigpa instructor and spiritual carer since 2009. \nHe came to his spiritual path following episodes of depression. He has applied conventional therapy\, alongside Buddhist approaches of working with the mind\, to lead a healthy and contented life. \nHis Buddhist training and practice has underpinned his professional clinical spiritual care work in hospitals and the community for the past twenty years. Nigel has managed and facilitated the Rigpa Spiritual Care Education Programme. \nNigel lives with his wife\, Barb\, in a suburban sanctuary that houses their art studio and meditation space. \n \n  \nAbout Beth Buchannan \nBeth began studying and practising Buddhism in her twenties and is so grateful for the sanity and self-compassion it has brought to her personal and professional life. The Buddhist teachings have also given Beth confidence in being courageous and gentle when connecting with others in her practice as a social worker\, and has provided a profound framework of meaning to reference and take refuge in. Beth lives in Melbourne with her three sons and two cats and has worked as a social worker in mental health and family violence.
