“The compassionate mind is the mind that transforms" ~ Prof. Paul Gilbert

Please join us for An Evening for Ukraine; an opportunity to come together to show our support for the people of Ukraine and practice techniques that can help us face the unimaginable suffering happening around the world.

We will explore 'the Holder and the Held' meditation technique which helps to tap into our 'soothing system' and create the conditions for a more content and compassionate mind. From this place we are more able to respond to the difficulties happening in the world and in our own lives.

We'll also use simple restorative yoga postures to gently release tension and tightness in the body and complete the evening with a deeply relaxing compassionate body scan.

Open to all, even those who have never practiced yoga or mindfulness before so do join us to unite in peace, compassion and healing.

PLEASE DONATE WHAT YOU CAN
