SUMMARY:Spring Members Weekend
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]\nWith Jacky, James and other MA tutors\nBecome a member for just £10 for 6 months trial and attend the weekend for free ( https://www.mindfulnessassociation.net/about/mindfulness-association-membership/ )\n\nIn this weekend all our tutors will be providing a little taster of the courses they are offering in 2027, including Compassion in Action, Mystical Poetry, Mindful Qigong and Living Well to Die Well as well as our 4 Level Pathway Courses.  ( https://www.mindfulnessassociation.net/mindfulness-courses/in-depth-4-level-meditation-training/ )\n\nWelcome to Your Annual Members’ Weekend\nIn a world that constantly demands productivity, optimisation, and fixing, even our mindfulness practice can subtly become another project on our to-do list. We can find ourselves trying to “get it right,” achieve a state of calm, or perform presence—especially if we are teachers holding space for others.\nThis year’s standalone Spring Members’ Weekend is an invitation to lay down the burden of striving. Together, we will step out of the “doing mode” of trying to alter our experience and step into The Wise Heart—resting in open, natural awareness exactly as things are.\nWhether you join us to nourish your personal practice, reconnect with the Sangha, or explore your embodiment as a teacher, this free weekend offers a restorative space to pause, undo, and simply arrive home to yourself.\nWhat We Will Explore Together\nAcross two days of practice, reflection, and community connection, we will explore:\n\n\nUnpacking the Striving Habit: Recognising subtle efforts to manufacture “good” meditation states.\n\n\nSinking into Body Wisdom: Moving from mental control to receptive, somatic presence.\n\n\nResting in Open Awareness: Learning to sit with uncertainty, resistance, and difficulty without needing to “fix” them.\n\n\nLiving and Teaching from Being: Bringing authentic, effortless presence into daily life and teaching spaces.\n\n\n\nShare your weekend with a like-minded community of mindfulness members as we take some time out to relax and rest and practice together.\nYou also have the opportunity to extend the weekend into a 5 day practice retreat for £250 which you can book using the button below.\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″]JOIN MEMBERSHIP FOR £10[/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″]ABOUT MEMBERSHIP[/vc_column][/vc_row]\n
