Happy weekend everyone. Here's a little zen reminder to watch for moments of peace in your day.

Our next community meditation group is on Thursday at 7pm. Fancy giving it a try?

Sometimes when times get hard, nature can give us rest. We read this last week at our weekly Thursday meditation at Lochar Mill Riverside Retreat , with the sound of the river rushing by in the background.

'For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.'

There are just a couple of spaces left at this Thursday's community meditation sessions at 7pm Lochar Mill Riverside Retreat . Take a little time for yourself to come along and just breathe. Donation only.

The newest community meditation group in Strathaven is well and truly up and running at Lochar Mill Riverside Retreat. With silent and led meditations every week at 7pm on Thursdays we are hoping to create a place where people can come and breathe and meditate together.

We now have a WhatsApp group where a weekly invitation is sent out for those wanting to attend - and spaces are going like hot cakes. Operating on a donation basis, sessions are available for all.

If you'd like to come along send Neil Fogg a message to be added to the WhatsApp group to sign for a place each week. Hope to see you soon.

After the success of our first get together, Strathaven's community meditation group are meeting again this Thursday at 7pm at Lochar Mill Riverside Retreat . Would you like to come along?

Sessions have 10 spaces in total- please reply below or DM Neil Fogg to say you're coming. Alternatively, send me your number and I'll add you to the new group WhatsApp.

The sessions take place in a semi outdoors setting- please dress warmly and bring a throw with you for extra cosiness.

Anyone can come- whether you are a seasoned meditator or completely new to it. Only a small donation is requested to cover costs, plus a wee something if you fancy tea and biscuits afterwards.
