New Series: The Happiness Habit
$10 per class, free for supporting members
The kindest thing we can do for ourselves and others in 2025 is to develop the happiness habit and embrace a new way of being. We know from experience that our thoughts create our world, so our mind can be our best friend or worst enemy. How wonderful it would be to relate to ourselves and our world in a way that naturally allows happiness and joy to arise from within. Buddha showed that by cultivating the habit of positive thinking through meditation, we can engage in life in a light and relaxed way that not only affords us a rich sense of well-being but also brings a joyful energy to all our relationships and interactions.

MEDITATION IS FOR EVERYONE, JOIN US!
Meditation is about understanding and transforming our mind, shifting our mental state from negative to positive ones that cause true happiness. Meditation connects us to the extraordinary potential within our own mind. Through meditation we discover that our mind is vast, light, the very nature of peace and joy, and infinitely flexible. This discovery opens us up to a whole new perspective: We can change. We can heal. We can flourish from within and benefit all the people in our lives and beyond. Join us for a joyful exploration of the art of flourishing from a modern Buddhist perspective.
Meditation in Queens provides weekly in-person meditation classes in Long Island City and we seek to expand our offerings in the future to Sunnyside, Astoria, Jackson Heights and other neighborhoods of Queens through pop-ups and regular class offerings.
