A COMPASSIONATE PATH TO INNER CALM & CLARITY

Our Approach to Meditation

AT THE CORE meditation is a living practice that grows with you. We draw on timeless wisdom from Yoga, Ayurveda, breathwork, mantra and mindfulness, then shape it into something personal and practical. Some days you’ll simply focus on your breath, other days you’ll settle into silent stillness with others – no lotus pose is required, just your presence.

Every session is gently guided and grounded in the present moment, so you feel safe, comfortable and supported from the very first breath. With experienced teachers, small classes and individualized attention, your practice deepens naturally, whether you join us in our North London studio or online.

What To Expect In a Meditation Class

A typical 90-minute class begins with a few moments to arrive and settle in, followed by a brief check-in or gentle movement to release tension. You will then be guided through breathwork and mindfulness exercises before moving into seated meditation. Chairs and cushions are available if needed.

We finish with a few minutes of restful reflection. You are welcome exactly as you are, with room for questions, simple props on hand, and expert guidance whether you join us in North London or via Zoom. There is no need to “get it right,” only to feel at ease.

Meditation That Meets You Where You Are

Who Benefits from Meditation

Our meditation classes are designed for real people with busy lives – complete beginners, experienced practitioners, or anyone returning to mindfulness after a break. The pace is gentle and approachable, focusing on breath awareness, guided stillness, and simple practices that fit into your schedule. No prior yoga or spiritual background is needed—just a willingness to pause and breathe.

These sessions are especially supportive if you’re curious about meditation but unsure where to begin, seeking calm during a stressful time, or struggling with anxiety, overthinking, or burnout. If you crave quiet and space for yourself, want more focus and clarity, feel isolated and long to connect with a like-minded community, or are looking for a deeper sense of self and purpose, you’ll be welcomed and guided every step of the way.

Life as Meditation

Bring Mindfulness into Every Moment

Meditation does not end when you leave the cushion. The practices we share are meant to ripple through your daily life, into the way you listen, walk, breathe and respond to the world around you. By cultivating steady attention and inner connection, ordinary moments become gateways to awareness and peace.

This philosophy lies at the heart of AT THE CORE. We are not just teaching a technique but nurturing a way of being that supports your wholeness wherever you are and however you feel. To help you integrate mindfulness into everyday routines, try our Meditation Moments class for brief guided practices designed to anchor calm and clarity throughout your day.
