Mindful Heart
A Live Music & Compassion Immersion
Saturday, 5 September 2026 |
2:-00-3:30PM
Sometimes the person we are hardest on is ourselves.
We strive, overthink, compare and keep going, often believing we need to be more before we are enough.
Mindful Heart is an invitation to pause that inner critic and dialogue.
This is a live music journey that weaves together guided compassion meditation, heartful melodies and harmonies, and reflective stream-of-consciousness writing. Shared in a small, intimate circle of no more than 16 people, it offers a gentle space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and cultivate greater self-compassion.
Whether you've never meditated before or have an existing practice, you'll be gently guided through an afternoon designed to leave you feeling lighter, calmer and more connected.
Come exactly as you are.

Why compassion?
