Free Falun Gong Sessions: Meditation For Energy & Clarity

Falun Gong, or Falun Dafa, is a spiritual practice that's taken the world by storm. Rooted in Buddhist tradition, it combines self-improvement through studying teachings with gentle exercises and meditation. And guess what? It's completely free—no membership required.

When COVID-19 turned the world upside down, practitioners from Australia, India, and North America stepped up. They moved their sessions online, aiming to help people cope with the stress. The impact? A global community of 100 million followers reaping the benefits.

Practitioners report major boosts in mental health, including kicking depression and anxiety to the curb, along with various physical health improvements. Even those who aren't dealing with health issues find a new sense of fulfilment, mental clarity, positivity, and energy.

With results like these, it's no wonder the free online Falun Dafa classes have exploded in popularity. Head over to www.learnfalungong.com to sign up for a free class.

Take it from Kalpana Lohani, a Vice Principal in Kathmandu, Nepal. After attending a free online workshop by Indian practitioners, she says, "Now, I do all five Falun Dafa exercises every morning. I feel calm, alert, and healthy. I sleep better. I feel so good and fortunate that I heard about them."

Even with lockdowns over, the online format remains a hit. It's a lifeline for those who can't attend in-person sessions. Plus, the classes now come in many languages, including Vietnamese, Bengali, Kannada, Turkish, Russian, and Swedish.

Visit LearnFalunGong.com, pick your time slot, and you're set. The site even shows times in your local time zone automatically. Volunteer hosts break down the principles of Falun Dafa and guide you through the five simple exercises. You can drop in as often as you like and dive into the Falun Dafa 9-Day Lecture Series online for a deeper understanding.

In Auckland, Falun Gong enthusiasts gather daily from 10 am to 12 pm outside the Chinese consulate at 580 Great South Rd, Penrose, and at Aotea Square in the CBD.

Volunteers also offer 9-day seminars (2 hours per day) for groups of ten or more at locations like meeting rooms, community centers, or Marae. For more details, call 021 1090015 or email info@learnfalungong.org.au.
