Being Mindful in Nature: A Nature-based Meditation Workshop

Brockwell Park Community Greenhouses Brockwell Park, Herne Hill

Take a break from the busy London life and join us in the gardens to calm you mind and appreciate the natural world. Many of us struggle with cultivating or maintaining a mindfulness practice. It is, in fact, easier and more natural to practice mindfulness in nature. Nature is a wonderful teacher, helping us more intuitively tap into feelings of peace, joy, and to be more present with the world around us. We also know from recent studies that spending time in nature for even 10 minutes a day has profound impacts on our physiological and emotional wellbeing. So why not start here, with our wonderful gardens (and Deepti) as your guide! Who is this workshop for? Everyone! Whether you are new to meditation and mindfulness or a practitioner who wants to deepen their practice. If you love nature you’ll love this workshop. The workshop will be led by Deepti Sastry Tickets are Pay What You Can (recommended price £35) BOOK HERE
