Take some time out to breathe, taste and get body connected during this belly calming session of meditation – and dark chocolate!
This workshop is a gentle session focussed on soothing your body and helping you feel connected with your senses. It’s very easy to get swept up in the busyness of life so this is an opportunity to slow down. Chocolate is a beautiful ingredient full of aromas and tasting it slowly and with awareness is a delicious way to explore mindfulness.During this workshop I’ll share ways that you can extend some of the breathing and mindfulness techniques we’ll practice into everyday living.
What can you expect?
– A gentle opening meditation to calm your system and help get you body-connected
– Slow, guided mindful eating meditation with a selection of single origin dark chocolates that engages all your senses (using the chocolate that I use in my own chocolate making from beautiful bean-to-bar brand, Pump St Chocolate)
You’ll receive a special chocolatey treat to take away and taste (mindfully!) using some of the techniques we’ll explore in the workshop.
This meditation workshop is suitable for new and experienced meditators. Meditation is a very personal experience and there’s no right or wrong way to feel about it! However, we won’t be aiming to transcend to any higher planes or tap into different states of consciousness; this workshop is about grounding, connecting and calming.
Please note if you are suffering from certain diagnosed mental health conditions (including clinical depression, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder) you should always seek support your supporting clinician before taking part in meditation. Meredith will send a form to complete ahead of the workshop to help you identify any information or support you should seek before taking part in the session.
