Over the last two Mondays we’ve experimented with returning to meditation after the tea break, and many people found that the second sit allowed them to settle much more deeply. Like on a retreat, each time we return to practice the mind has another opportunity to become still.

This Monday we’ll continue with that format, exploring how meditation helps us move beyond the mind’s endless search for “How can I be happy?” and discover a deeper sense of presence that’s less dependent on circumstances and more rooted in awareness itself.

With the weather staying warm, we’ll keep the practice beautifully simple by resting with the body and the breath. Our meeting room stays surprisingly cool, so if you’re looking for a peaceful refuge from the heat, you’ll be very welcome.

Looking forward to seeing many of you tomorrow evening: 7-9pm, 52 Saint Martins Lane 🙏

🌈 CELEBRATING OURSELVES 🌈
Pride Month is a time to celebrate who we are, yet many of us rarely pause to acknowledge our own successes, achievements and moments of happiness.
This Monday we’ll explore a guided meditation that helps us appreciate our own good fortune and then extend that appreciation outwards to friends, strangers and all beings.
When we learn to celebrate ourselves, it becomes easier to celebrate others too.

Looking forward to seeing you all this Monday! ✨

We will begin with a progressive muscle relaxation practice, a wonderful tool for deep physical relaxation and improving sleep. 😴

In the second half, we will move into a guided gratitude meditation focused on our bodies. Inspired by Carl Sagan’s “we are made of stardust,” we will reflect on our connection to the universe. As we celebrate Pride Month, it is a beautiful opportunity to honor our physical selves and the wonder of being alive. 🌌🏳️‍🌈
