Mindfulness is always available to us if we take a pause.

For this special morning in Mindful May, Annie Bolitho will invite you to connect with yourself, nature and others in the group through simple activities. Movement. Reflection on the river. The process of making marks with natural pigments that are readily available.

Taking in the beauty of the Yarra or Birrarung will inspire peacefulness, connection and expression. All the activities are easy and suitable for anyone who wants to get involved.

We hope that your participation in Mindful May will give you reasons to come down and enjoy the river more often!

Annie Bolitho has practised Zen Buddhism for over twenty years. She enjoys offering simple mindfulness activities that remind us to make the most of the 'one meeting' of each moment, and to open our sense doors to the world around us. Her workshops are easy going and inclusive, suitable for all ages and abilities.

Let's celebrate the beauty of our riverside community together! Hope you can make the time to join us.

The meeting place is the entrance to the Abbotsford Convent.
