Check Availability and Book

These are monthly drop-in sessions for people with Parkinson’s as well as their family members and support team. The sessions are 40 minutes long from 8pm – 8.40pm, facilitated by a mindfulness trainer, with around 20 minutes of guided practice followed by some time to reflect and connect. The intention is to offer practices to support different aspects of living with Parkinson’s. No previous mindfulness experience is needed and you are welcome to come along and try a session.

Before joining you might like to watch the June 2024 event: Exploring how Mindfulness Can Support People Living with Parkinson’s Disease [full recording approx. 1 hour]

Mindfulness practices are suitable for most people, though there may be certain circumstances when it may be wiser not to practice formally. If you’re unsure about whether this is a good time to be coming along to these monthly drop-in sessions, please contact us with your questions. You can also contact us if you notice that taking part in a session has caused any increase in either physical or emotional difficulties. We will talk through with you how you can practice safely and where you may be able to access further support.

The Mindfulness Network Terms and Conditions apply (though payment and cancellation policies are not relevant for freely offered Events) and the Mindfulness Network can not accept any liability for any injury, loss, or damage, suffered during or in relation to the event, however this may be caused.

Bio

The Mindfulness Network is a registered charity. We serve the mindfulness community and general public through supervision, retreats and training courses delivered both in-person and via our online platform - the Mindfulness Network Community site. The Mindfulness Network Community Friends (MNCF) is an initiative to engage the wider mindfulness community and reach new audiences through donation-based events and opportunities to practice. Led by a Committee of Volunteers, supported by the Mindfulness Network, we work together to run a programme of events and inspiring content. By developing mindfulness and compassion both internally and through our services, the Mindfulness Network has the intention to reduce/alleviate human suffering, promote well-being and create the conditions in which people, communities and the planet, can flourish. We aim to bring together highly-trained mindfulness-based supervisors, retreat leaders and teacher trainers who all work within Good Practice Standards set out by the British Association of Mindfulness-Based Approaches (BAMBA).
