With Annie Akasati McAuley
Make meditation part of your week as part of a small, welcoming group. Join us for guided mindfulness and compassion practice, with the opportunity to discuss the practices if you wish. Connect with your deeper self - and with others - in these nourishing, interactive sessions.
I look forward to sharing a drop-in with you soon.
Tuesdays 11.00-11.40am for a 30-minute guided meditation, followed by shared reflections and inquiry.
UK time = UTC (GMT) +0; British Summer Time = UTC (GMT) +1.00
Open to anyone, regardless of previous mindfulness experience.
Donations: Please donate whatever you wish. If you prefer to follow a suggested donation, we suggest around £5 per class.
PayPal: Use the PayPal 'donate' button at the bottom right of this page. Feel free to give something at the end of each session, or on a monthly basis, donating for however many drop-ins you have attended.
Standing Order: some regulars at the drop-in choose to donate by standing order (around £15 per month, if you want a suggested amount). Donating a regular amount helps Annie to continue to offer this drop-in. It also means that none of your money is going to PayPal. And a participant, donating regularly also helps remind and motivate you to attend the sessions regularly.
If you feel unsure about joining a class on the Zoom app, we offer a few guidelines here.
Comments from participants
"Annie’s Tuesday drop in session has been gold dust for me over the last 5 years. Her calm and compassionate manner and the creativeness of the practices have been invaluable in allowing me to deepen my practice and establish a sense of calm and clarity in my day. Her guidance varies from week to week exploring different themes of mindfulness meditation practice. Always fresh and refreshing! I particularly value the time given over to inquiry (rarely found on online drop ins) the practice which deepens my practice further."
"Tuesday mornings at 11.00 have become a touchstone for me during my busy life. I can join like-minded people in a small interactive group to stop, listen and reconnect with myself. The reflections following the 30 minute meditation always offer something new and I know I am in a safe space."
"The Tuesday morning drop-in class has been my re-set and checking in point for a number of years now. Annie's compassionate mediations are different every week and every time I feel I gain something different. After the meditation, all are welcome to contribute as much or as little of their own reflections and experiences as they feel able. I'd recommend this class to beginners and seasoned mediators alike."
