Saturday morning online meditation practice with a talk & conversation (08:30-09:30 UK time)
Multiple dates and times
Online, Zoom
Description
Meditation in the Christian tradition is an ancient and simple way of prayer.
Our purpose is to teach meditation as a simple path to peace, community and oneness. Our vision is to help people establish peace in themselves and become places of peace in the world.
Each session includes a short talk, a period of silent meditation practice (preceded by some basic guidelines for anyone who is new), and an opportunity for conversation afterwards.
The sessions are guided by Chris Whittington. Chris spent a period of formation at Prinknash Abbey Benedictine Monastery and is the Founder of The School of Contemplative Life.
You don't need to bring anything - just yourself. Try to find a quiet space where you won't be disturbed.
Words from participants:
“I was feeling pretty alone and depleted before I arrived today. Being with others in this space means a great deal. I noticed the depth of compassion I felt for/with others in the ‘room’ after meditation had finished”.
“I
only started meditation under a month ago and it has truly deepened,
not only my prayer life, but my relationship with myself too.”
“I just wanted to say that last week’s meditation was wonderful. I am beginning to feel the impact in my life. Others have said I am starting to respond differently to things.”
