Open Meditation Evening
We have a open Meditation Evening most Sundays at 7.30pm. This is free of charge, but booking is essential.
If you have a meditation practice and would like the opportunity to sit and practice with others, we warmly welcome you to join us.
Meditating with like minds is a wonderful way to imbibe in the peace that a group setting creates and helps to deepen one's own practice.
As this is a meditation event, the only talking is for necessities. Opportunities for getting to know one another can of course be arranged at other times.
To book your place, or for further information, please phone or email us.

Pure Kriya Meditation
At the heart of the Self Realization system of yoga and meditation practices, Pure Kriya Meditation is a beautiful, in-depth meditation practice that has the power to transform your life for the better.
Connect with your innermost essence/Soul/Spirit/God within and experience peace, unconditional love, joy ~ and the health and resilience that such positivity creates ~ in every aspect of your life.
Pure Kriya Meditation is normally taught as a residential course over seven days, five at first and two approximately 6 months later, at the Open Pathway Retreat Centre in Somerset. This is usually the best way to take the course and gives you the opportunity to relax and unwind whilst learning and assimilating the Meditation practice in a peaceful retreat environment, free of the usual demands and distractions of daily life. See https://openpathwaycentre.org/about-pure-meditation/ for full details.
If you're interested, we would wholeheartedly recommend that you learn Pure Kriya Meditation this way.
Learning Pure Kriya Meditation can be a very natural next step after learning and practicing Pure Meditation Foundation.
Of all the Yogic and Mindfulness training we have undertaken over 20+ years, Pure Kriya Meditation has been the most transformative. Powerfully life-enhancing in every way!
