Join us for an afternoon of discussion and mindfulness practice.

Mark Williams and Danny Penman will talk about mindfulness and the concept of "feeling tone" (or "vedanā"). They will answer questions and lead us in short guided practices.

This workshop is offered on a sliding scale pricing, no one turned away due to lack of funds. As this is a fundraiser for our community sessions and subsidised memberships, if you are financially secure please consider paying the full £25 suggested ticket price.

Arrive from 12:45pm for a prompt 1pm start. 

No previous meditation or mindfulness experience necessary! There will be no lengthy silent meditations, only shorter guided practices to demonstrate the concepts discussed during the workshop.

There will be a short break half way through the workshop, and then soft drinks and snacks available at the end. We will be finished by 4pm.
