Event Information
About the Group
This is a guided support and dialogue group that uses guided mindfulness meditation and group conversation as a basis for stress recovery and improving relaxation and wellbeing. Using a set of easy-to-learn practices, we will create our own safe space and a community where participants are welcome to share and listen to each other’s thinking, stories and experiences.
- Themed sessions on various topics like challenges, gratitude and inspiration
- Share your own and hear about other people’s experiences
- No previous experience in groups necessary and no obligation to join in
- Respond rather than react to stress
- Cultivate self-awareness and empowerment
- Explore your identity in relation to autism
