Meditation classes will commence again in February 2025. If you are interested please leave a comment including your preferred day, classes will be 11am to 12pm in the Jetty area…
The sessions will include a range of meditations from mindfulness and insight that Monique has found popular over the years she’s been teaching. Some meditations will be simple guided meditations, where you simply follow the voice of the Leader, and some will give your mind a bit of a workout – helping you become more aware of your thoughts and feelings. The teachings are non religious but many stem from ancient teachings of Buddhism, Hindi and other traditions. Everyone is welcome.
The classes are designed with beginners in mind. First time and experienced meditators are welcome to attend.
You are free to attend as you please, but we do recommend you attend every week during terms. This helps keep up your motivation towards a successful meditation practice that will enhance your life. I will provide session plans covering different topics – and attending all sessions will give you the benefit of a greater way of experiencing different kinds of meditations, and insights about why meditation should be an important part of everyone’s life. Making a commitment to your wellbeing, learning about what suits you, and sharing experiences in a group can enhance your meditation practice. Sessions will not be run during school holidays.
Meditation and mindfulness are said to be the keys to happiness and joy. Building a daily practice can be challenging, and including a weekly session can help increase your motivation to make meditation a habit – and stick with it, while giving you the opportunity to share your journey with like minded souls.
Please feel free to bring your own meditation cushion/ stool and yoga mat if you wish. Yoga mats are not required, but some prefer to use them if sitting on the floor. You should also take payment, an open mind, and an eagerness to learn.
As a leader I have undergone meditation training by Peter Radcliffe, to follow in his footsteps, sharing the ancient art of meditation as he’s learned from his many years of travel and experience. I feel a connection to his style of down to earth teachings and a still studying under him as my mentor.
