We are a volunteer-led community for young adults practicing mindfulness inspired by the teachings of Zen-master Thich Nhat Hanh.
About this Event

We offer regular sessions of mindfulness where you can really rest. We have an opportunity to stop, in order to take care of ourselves, each other and the planet.

Our sessions are very accessible to those new to meditation. We are a diverse community with practitioners from many different backgrounds, inclusive of all religions, gender identities and ways of life.

Dear friend, we are very happy that you found us and we are here for you.


More about us:

We aspire to be a place of refuge, nourishment and support for young people aged roughly 18 - 40 ish (we aim to cater mainly for younger adults, but if you resonate with this stage of life you are welcome to attend).
We want to provide a unique space for young people to practice together and share deeply from the heart whenever that feels needed. Practising together as a community of friends, we can create a strong collective energy of mindfulness that can nourish our joy, heal our pains, develop our understanding and love and cultivate peace within and around us.

Drawing on our experiences from the well established Wake Up London Community, we gather regularly, to practice sitting and walking meditation, to read books from Thich Nhat Hanh, practice deep relaxation, exercise mindful movements, mindful speaking and listening, and recite the Five Mindfulness Trainings.



Inclusivity

While Wake Up draws its inspiration from the Buddhist teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh, our community is not exclusively Buddhist. Mindfulness is a capacity that we all have. Our community is focused on practice and not on beliefs or ideology. We honour the unique roots of every individual and you can join as a Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jew, or Muslim as well as an agnostic, atheist or member of any other religious or spiritual grouping.
