MEDITATION is the key to a successful well-being according to staff at a Darwen therapy centre.

For workers at the Raphael Holistic Centre, in Belgrave Square, Darwen, have launched a new 10-week meditation course designed to heal the mind, body and spirit.

People are being urged to enrol for the full course in order to make the most of the alternative therapy, which will begin and end with a personal questionnaire to discover how participants fell they could be healed.

The questions will be used on a personal basis to assess how much progress each indiviual has made over the 10 weeks.

Sessions are due to begin at 7.30pm on Monday July 16 and will cost £3.50. People are advised to book early by telephoning 01254 774460.
