This class will explore a range of Mindfulness Meditation practices aimed at learning how to calm the busy mind, nurture compassion and awaken to our deepest and most authentic selves.  The class is suitable for complete beginners as well as more experienced practitioners from any meditation background, as each class will be respectfully aware of the needs of the group.

To be really grounded in the present moment is a gift - a place where we are fully alive and connected physically, emotionally and spiritually to the universe, to each other and with ourselves.  In the present moment, the future hasn't happened yet and the past is in the past.  It's a place of stillness and balance - an infinite moment where we can rest our busy minds.  In this place we can develop our inner resources and compassion and learn to cope better with the stresses that life inevitably throws at us.

Mindfulness Meditation has been shown to be very beneficial to our physical and psychological well being, reducing stress and anxiety, lowering blood pressure, helping us to cope with chronic pain and many more.

About Alison Buckle

My name is Ali and I started meditating about 10 years ago, starting with mindfulness meditation and in recent years exploring other practices such as somatic meditation and embodied meditation.  I discovered along the way that there is a stillness inside each of us that is a peaceful and nurturing safe-haven which we can all learn to access.
