❤️ We’re a meditation group that meets every sunday in the heart of Leiden, @Rapenburg100.

FAQ
Do you need a membership to join?
Nope! Come as you are, whenever suits you. 🌻
Is this for students only?
We welcome (phd-)students aged 18 -35 regardless of background. If you recently graduated or are on a break (<2 years) that is also ok. :)
*People studying at MBO, HBO or WO are considered students, with exception of those doing something like LOI or Open University. For those who do not meet these criteria, we recommend the following places in Leiden. (Christian, Metta, Vipassana).
What if I am dealing with mental health issues?
You are also welcome to join! We try to create a safe space for you to share about your thoughts. We however should be seen as complementary to therapy, and many participants have benefitted from the combination. Please consult with Ishana if you are interested in therapy. ❤️
What language are the meditations in?
English almost always, but we’re open to linguistical-inspiration if there’s a willing guide and participants!
Do I need to pay or bring anything?
No :). It is free to join and all the materials, including warm herbal tea, pillows and benches, are provided.
Do I need prior experience?
You can join as a novice or as a pro. No prior experience is required to meditate together.
Is it religious?
Not necessarily. We are an interfaith space with a variety of backgrounds and beliefs, practising a heartful existence together.
What does a meditation evening look like?
– Meet in front of the building
– Going upstairs to meditation space (take off your shoes!)
– We start with a 1-minute meditation to ground
– We introduce ourselves, and how we’re feeling
– Our guide gives a explanation of the meditation and evening
– 25-minute half-guided meditation
– Heartful sharing in a safe space for those who want to
– 10-minute heart meditation
– Washing our cups and go :)
The whole process takes about 1:30 hours. If you have to leave earlier, let your guide know and they’ll signal the time for you.
