"The practice of meditation is an act of kindness, for others as well as for yourself." ‑‑Thanissaro Bhikku
Welcome to this Virtual Awakin Circle! Even though this is hosted from Hertfordshire, UK, everyone is welcome to join. Inspired by global Awakin Circles, this is an online gathering that meets once a week (usually on Thursdays at 7pm UK time).
These gatherings have no set agendas, no teachers or proposed beliefs - they are simply a space to come together to listen to ourselves and to one another. There is no cost to attend; it is a simple offering in the spirit of co-creating a space for deeper wisdom to emerge, in silence and in community with others.
To join the next gathering click on the RSVP tab to sign-up. To stay updated with future gatherings, simply click on the Connect tab and send a message to the host. You will then be emailed as more information is available.
