About us

A shared journeytowards inner calm

The Way Within brings together meditation activities from seven Buddhist temples in Germany and makes meditation accessible in a clear, open and contemporary way.

Our purpose

Meditation as a first step

We aim to help people settle the mind, understand themselves more deeply and develop mindfulness in everyday life.

Our content is rooted in the Buddhist meditation tradition. At the same time, it is presented so that people without any religious background can find a natural and understandable way into the practice.

This website brings together regular meditation courses, retreats, inspiring content and information about seven temples in Germany.
