Thanks for bringing the energy and steady peace to sit, run, and sit again together.

When 40+ of us sit in silence, we signal to others that peace can be found in the most unexpected of places.

Mark your cal for 14th May, our next run club. Bring yourself or also a friend who might wanna sweat but get a slice of peas/peace.

Join us for guided meditation this wednesdayπŸ‘‹πŸ» rsvp above!

We explored how to practice the Dhamma in a way that is sustainable and kind.

The story of Bhikkhu Sona: His experience of pushing himself so hard that his feet bled led to the Buddha teaching the importance of balanced effort, like tuning a lute, not too tight, not too loose.
Knowing your zone: Drawing on the idea of the zone of proximal development, we reflected on recognising where we are in our practice, and seeking support to grow.πŸ“ˆ
Self-kindness in practice: Emphasis was placed on being mindful, compassionate, and patient with ourselves, rather than practicing with harshness or pressure.πŸ’–

Overall, the session highlighted that the path to peace isn’t about pressure, but about wise effort, balance, and care for one’s own mind.
