WHO WE ARE

Wake Up London is a group of young people who want to heal and transform our society, because we know that each of us has the capacity to live in an awakened way, to a lead a life in harmony with one another and with the earth.

We are inspired by the teachings of Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh and come together to meditate twice a month and organize meditation flash mobs in Central London.
