Meditation

Meditation can help with a number of everyday problems. It does this by enabling us to focus our minds and to relax our bodies, thus allowing our bodies and minds to heal themselves.

The most common of all these problems, is, undoubtedly, stress. Long term stress can give rise to all manor of different ailments. Meditation allows us to stay calmer and helps heal the damage caused to our minds and bodies.

Whilst Meditation can seem to be quiet challenging for most people initially, with regular practise it becomes easier and more natural. Within a group environment the meditation session is overseen by an experienced group leader and any assistance required can be obtained on the spot, if any issues arise.

At The Centre, Rosie Holmes runs a weekly drop-in mindfulness-meditation practice session (term-time only). This is an informal space for anyone who wishes to come and explore, sustain or begin meditation practice in community. Together we will explore this shared experience of being human together; with empathy, care and attention.

Rosie will briefly introduce a theme for the session, guide a simple meditation practice (20-25 minutes) and then offer a space for discussion, questions, reflections etc. The meditations offered each week will be rooted in buddhist vipassana mindfulness and secular mindfulness traditions.

An inclusive space welcoming folks of all ethnicities, classes, sexual orientations, ages, gender identities and abilities.
