About the classes

Join us for a virtual meditation and mindfulness on line session, to help support your physical and emotional wellbeing.  Anyone can join these sessions, ostomates and healthcare professionals too . You will need a smartphone, computer or tablet to access the class and you will need to be connected to the internet.

These 30 minute classes are suitable for complete beginners as well as regular meditators. Classes are fully guided and aim to support you to find calm and ease in your life, no matter what is going on. Breathing techniques, body relaxation and mindfulness will be taught in these classes. These techniques can then be used outside of the classes.

Classes are accessible, no prior meditation experience is required and there will be no physical activity in the classes. You can sit on a comfortable chair, on a cushion on the ground, or lie down on a bed to join in the class. Please ensure you have any blankets you may need nearby to be warm and cushions for extra comfort.
