Thursday 25th March at 7-8pm Online FREE taster session with Q&A with Fay Adams

This inspiring new 6 week course starts on Thursday 31 March (7pm -8.30pm) (UK TIME)

Are you a poetry lover? In this course we’ll be hovering at the crossover between mindfulness practice and spiritual or contemplative practice. We’ll see what the words of mystics from diverse religious backgrounds – Christianity, Islam, Buddhism and Hinduism – can teach us.

Poetry has a special power to reach the heart, and mindfulness can clear a space for us to be able to receive and digest the wisdom in a poem. What a marvellous combination! Letting the ancient poems of the world’s mystics into our practice may offer comfort, open the mind/heart, inspire insight or touch us where we need to feel.

                            Startled by God 

                                  Not like
                        A lone beautiful bird,
        These poems now rise in great white flocks
                    Against my mind’s vast hills
                            Startled by God
                          Breaking a branch
                             When his foot
                                 Touches
                                   Earth
                                   Near
                                    Me
