Open Silent Meditation

Open Silent Meditation

The Salisbury Centre is offering a welcoming space for silent community meditation every weekday

  • In the morning at 8:00 – 8:30 am, and
  • In the afternoon at 5:30 – 6:00 pm.

Additionally, there is a meditation every Friday 12:00-12:45 pm.

These meditations are non-denominational and accessible to all; no experience is needed. The form is 30 minutes of silence, sometimes started with a dedication or invocation. You may sit in any way you find comfortable. A selection of chairs, cushions, stools and even blankets are provided.

Practicalities

  • These are 30-minute sessions of silent contemplation (except for Friday 12pm one, which is 45 mins), run by volunteers.
  • Whilst these meditations are not guided as such, feel free to ask if you have any questions or concerns before or after the meditation.
  • Everybody is welcome to just drop in, no need to book ahead.

  • Please arrive 5 minutes before the start.
  • Cushions and blankets provided. Donations toward the upkeep of the Centre are very welcome but not necessary.
  • If you’d like to help with hosting, please email [email protected]

Important note about cancellations

We try our best to not cancel these sessions but occasionally, it happens last minute. To make sure a slot you’re planning to attend isn’t cancelled, please check the “What’s On” section of the website.
