Mindfulness Practice Group
Our mindfulness practice group is open to anyone who has completed an eight week MBSR, MBCT, MBCP course, or equivalent.
​
We come together to support each other in our deepening practice and understanding of Mindfulness.
​
We meet online and in person on various dates from 6pm to 7.30pm and explore different themes/ideas each time we meet.
​
We welcome all those who are seeking a friendly community of like minded beings to practice mindfulness together.
The intention of both our face to face and online meetings is to build a community of people who can connect with and support each other to bring mindfulness more into daily life.
​
We also have mindfulness practice days where we have the opportunity to let go of all the doing for a few hours and immerse ourselves in being.
"Being in a group so friendly and welcoming has been greatly beneficial... I feel as if I can find a way out of the woods in future!"
