About Anapana Courses for Children

Over the past 28 years,hundreds of Anapana courses have been conducted exclusively for children around the world. These courses have yielded substantial benefits for the thousands of children who have attended them. Many of them have experienced a positive change in their outlook, behaviour and attitude. Many have found their ability to concentrate has improved and that their memory has strengthened. And above all,these children have acquired a tool that is of immense value to them for the rest of their lives.

Children are, by nature, active and enthusiastic, with an eagerness to leam and explore. For this reason, it is appropriate to offer them an opportunity to explore themselves and their mind with all its hidden faculties, latent abilities and subtle complexities. Learning Ananpana plants a wholesome interest in introspection and meditation, which may open an entirely new dimension of life for them later on.

Anapana courses for children have been conducted since 1986. These courses have been offered to children of various ages and socio-economic and cultural groups. They have been conducted in Vipassana meditation centres as well as at schools and other institutions, and have been both residential and nonresidential

Whether a children’s Anapana course is held at a school or at a Vipassana meditation centre, it is essential that the student be given an opportunity to continue to practice Anapana for a short period each day after the course to yield the true benefit of the practice.
