Calm in the City – Morning Meditation for Modern Life 8:00 – 8:45

FREE Meditation Gathering 

Join me for a powerful meditation experience at Wellington Place as part of Leeds Wellbeing Week.

This is for anyone curious about meditation, whether you’ve never tried it before or already have a practice.

Together, we’ll experience one of the most natural, simple and effortless forms of meditation there is.
No forcing the mind. No complicated techniques. No belief system required.

Just 45 minutes to slow down, reconnect to yourself, and experience deep rest in the middle of the city.

This style of meditation comes from the same Vedic tradition learned by The Beatles from Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. It’s designed not to escape life, but to help you meet it with more clarity, calm and energy.

There’s something incredibly powerful about meditating together.
When people gather with intention, presence and stillness, it creates a ripple effect far beyond the individual. We regulate, soften and elevate together.

For the first ever Leeds outdoor group meditation, I’m inviting you to help co-create a moment of collective calm, connection and consciousness in the heart of the city.

30 yoga mats and blankets will be available for the first arrivals.
You’re also very welcome to bring your own mat, blanket or cushion.
