 classes The Sanctuary Dublin

An Irish charity is offering free online meditation classes to “everyone and anyone” after suspending all public classes and scheduled courses due to the coronavirus outbreak.

The Sanctuary, based in Dublin city centre, is looking to promote social change over the web having been forced to close its doors last week.

“We are offering free online mediation classes to anyone and everyone, both members and non-members,” says Jane Megrych, Managing Director of The Sanctuary.

“There is a link posted on our website, Facebook and Instagram pages where you can click and join a virtual meeting on Zoom for the classes.

“Our classes will be on Mondays at 10am, Wednesdays at 7.30pm and Thursdays at 1.15pm, all free of charge.”

The organisation, founded by Sr Stan Kennedy in 1998, says the online incentive has far-reaching consequences that can help those in self-isolation to overcome loneliness and bring people closer together during the crisis.
