Simple Meditation Practices for beginners:
Sit upright on a stable chair such as a dining chair, unless you are really comfortable sitting on the floor.
You can also meditate lying down but you might fall asleep more easily!
7 Minute Rising and Falling Practice
A guided meditation working with the noticing technique and moving into working with the breath as a meditation object, labelling the breath Rising and Falling.
7 Minute Noticing Practice
A simple guided meditation to practice drawing inwards through the sensations in the body. Using the noticing technique to come into the present moment.
Garden Meditation
A 21 minute guided practice recorded in my garden.
Gently connect to your surroundings and draw yourself inwards. Enjoy being in the fresh air. Let the sounds and sensations of being outside guide your practice. You can practice this meditation in your own garden, or use the sounds on the recording if it's too cold or rainy to be outside. Enjoy being in, connected to and part of nature and the world around you.
Love Meditation
A 15 minute meditation practice taking you gently in towards your inner self, the space where you can just be.
When we spend time just being we connect to our essence of love which underpins everything that we are and everything that we do. This love is what connects us all together. There’s an introduction and the meditation begins at 4min 18.

Sun Salutation Practices
This is the Sun Salutation we most often do in evening class. Suitable for all except ladies during pregnancy (see my pregnancy resources instead). It’s a variation on a traditional salutation, without Chatturanga Dandasana. I took this video out in the sunshine - the best place for a salutation of course, but most of the time in the UK at least you’ll be practising this inside!
This is a gentle variation on a sun salutation. Suitable for all except ladies during pregnancy (see my pregnancy resources instead). This version has less strong transitions between poses and less requirement for arm strength. Great for those in my daytime, gentle classes, and for beginners. (Tip: you can put a blanket, or fold your mat over under your knees if you need to).
