We meet at the Coffee Lounge in Herne Hill Baptist Church on Half Moon Lane every Thursday from 10-11.30am. If for some reason you can't make that session, we also have groups on Tuesdays in Streatham Vale in the Vestry room adjoining the Holy Redeemer Church, also at 10-1130am.

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.
