About us
Welcome to the Mindfulness in Auroville Meetup! This group is an open space for exploring mindfulness as a way of meeting life more consciously and kindly.
Whether you are new to mindfulness or have an established practice, you are warmly invited to join us for shared practices, workshops, courses, and retreats. Together, we explore mindfulness not as something to fix ourselves, but as a way of gently turning towards our experience - including stress, overwhelm, and uncertainty - and discovering more ease, clarity, and connection in daily life.
This meetup is a gentle invitation to pause, practice together, and explore what it means to live with greater awareness and care.
The group is guided by Helen - a qualified Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction teacher, certified Mindfulness Coach, and Mindfulness Trainer with 20 years of experience in meditation who lives in Auroville.
