Mindfulness Meditation
A simple form of non-religious meditation
Mindfulness meditation is not a religion, simply a method that enhances mental and physical wellbeing and reduces anxiety, stress, depression, exhaustion, and irritability. You don’t have to sit cross-legged on the floor unless you want to – most of us sit on chairs.
We meet Tuesday at 6pm at 7a Whero Ave, beginning our 30 minute meditation with a short audio guided meditation and then sit silently. Afterwards, we share a companionable cup of tea and chat.
