Live mindfulness session: First Tuesday of the month
3 November at 13:30 to 14:00
Our drop-in live mindfulness sessions are free. They are led by experienced teachers and offer an opportunity to refresh and sustain your practice. It’s also hugely beneficial to practice with others. Join us.
About the teacher
These sessions are led by Lucy Edwards, Clinical Psychologist working in secondary care adult mental health services within the Trust since 2003. Lucy’s relationship with mindfulness developed from experiencing its benefits first-hand. She integrates mindfulness into her clinical work and in 2015 completed her mindfulness teacher training at the Sussex Mindfulness & Compassion.
Who are these for?
These live sessions are open to everyone. We offer these sessions to support your practice, to allow you an opportunity to try out mindfulness and practice alongside others.
If you have no prior experience of mindfulness we would recommend attending one of our taster sessions first. You can book on to one of our tasters here. To get the most out of these live sessions we recommend completing an eight-week mindfulness course, if you haven’t already. You can find out more about these courses here
Not for clinical or crisis care
We offer these drop-in sessions to support your mindfulness practice, to allow you an opportunity to try out mindfulness and build a sense of community.
During the session, please be prepared to have your camera on. If you feel distressed or unwell after a practice, please let the teacher leading the session know and, if appropriate, your GP or a clinician working with you.
It is not advisable to do these mindfulness practices in the heat of a crisis, when it would be important to access your GP or your designated mental health clinician.
Do contact smc@spft.nhs.uk if you have questions about the drop-ins but please be aware that we are not a clinical or crisis service, and it will not be possible to respond urgently or clinically to emails.
