Stupid mental health garden meditation club

Mondays 12.45-3.15

Horfield Quaker Meeting House, Bristol BS7 8PD

We are a friendly non-denominational group of meditators who meet for a friendly session outdoors every week. If it’s really chucking it down, we use the small room in the building.

The only prerequisite to attend is owning a mind 🧠

The session

i promise the garden is less pixelated in real life

The group runs three practices – walking meditation, movement meditation, and sitting meditation for 10 minutes each, with a space before and after for tea and chatting.

Slow walking meditation

We walk around the garden in a slow mindful way, being aware of the breath and the sensation in the body.

Movement meditation

We do a simple set of movements from a fixed standing position which can be helpful for relaxation, flexibility, and provides a good stretch

Sitting meditation

We practice sitting in stillness and go through a few body scans and visualisations, which can be performed with open or closed eyes

♿ the venue has two steps up and one step down and has an accessible toilet. Please ask about any accessibility needs, we want everyone to be able to attend.
