CMBE offers individual and group psychotherapy, counselling, meditation, training, talks, workshops, and organisational consultancy.

CMBE is rooted in the Buddhist tradition, which is characterised by the principles of ethical integrity, self-knowledge and compassion. It aims to provide a learning context that is inclusive, non-dogmatic, based in both experiential and theoretical understanding, open to imagination and creativity, and which does not discriminate on grounds of religion, race, class, sexual orientation, cultural or physical conditions.

It is based on the cultivation of one’s inner resources for insight and understanding, rather than the mere acceptance of authority or fixed systems of thought.

CMBE strives to uphold the three foundations of human development and growth:

• Mentorship: guidance through experience and trust.
• Insight: clear understanding through support and direction.
• Community: the friendship and encouragement of others.
