In the heart of London, very close to Covent Garden, there is a weekly class in free meditation. **Achieve Yoga & Learn to Meditate in 2026 - 7:30- 9:00pm Tuesdays** The first experience of Sahaja Yoga meditation is called Self Realisation. With Sahaja Yoga Meditation we generally sit on chairs to achieve Yoga, effortlessly & spontaneously. As such no Asanas (exercises) are required, no mat or special clothing ## What is Meditation? Meditation is a state of mental silence or rest, where our attention is aware, but not engrossed in thinking. It is known as ‘thoughtless awareness’. It is achieved when the indwelling Kundalini energy awakens and carries the individual attention beyond the level of the 6th chakra, into the seventh chakra, known as Sahasrara. ## Yoga! It is here we achieve Yoga! As the mind finds rest and silence, we become able to feel our inner Self (Spirit). This can be tangibly felt, it actually manifests, as a cool wind, breath or breeze, often experienced on the palms of the hands or at the top (crown) of the head. It is a spontaneous, effortless natural happening. Each week many people experience this actualisation at one of the many free meditation classes on offer ## How to get into balance? The secret of the Sahaja Yoga method resides within us, at the base of the spinal chord, in a triangular bone called the “sacrum bone”. Since our birth in our sacrum bone dwells an inner energy called in Sanskrit Kundalini; it is characterised as a feminine energy and once activated, this energy rises along our spine until it reaches the top of the head and finally connects with the universal energy. This union is called “yoga” in Sanskrit. ## Kundalini As our indwelling Kundalini rises through the central channel, this benevolent feminine energy activates the chakras, removing all the impurities from them and nourishing the entire inner system. It is through this happening that we are elevated into ‘thoughtless awareness’, the mental silence of true meditation www.sahajayogalondon.co.uk Free Meditation & Yoga Classes in London Want to experience it now – Experience Self Realisation now – Guided Meditation ([https://www.sahajayogalondon.co.uk/articles/experience-your-self-realisation-online-now/](https://www.sahajayogalondon.co.uk/articles/experience-your-self-realisation-online-now/ "https://www.sahajayogalondon.co.uk/articles/experience-your-self-realisation-online-now/")) ###

Hot Bi Beverages! The Bi Coffee group (a separate group) meets at 3–6.30pm on the first Saturday of every month. The old Leon venue is permanently closed, so the group now meets in a Caffè Nero near Tottenham Court Road/Shaftesbury Avenue. **The venue**: Caffè Nero, the Central Saint Giles one; at the bottom (south end) of Earnshaw Street, at the corner with Shaftesbury Avenue (a big junction); round the corner from Tottenham Court Road Station. **Address**: 1a St. Giles High St, London WC2H 8AG Vicki is running Bi Coffee each month, come and go as you please. Find us by looking for our little purple unicorn and sign. Respect each other. Newcomers and quiet people are most welcome. There are regulars from outside our group (but in the general London bi community) so even if there's no-one else listed from here you'll be in a friendly and safe group. But do please note this is a separate group from our meetup group and for most reliable updates check out the [facebook page](https://www.facebook.com/groups/bicoffeelondon/). Its run enthusiastically by upstanding bi community member(s) and heartily recommended if more relaxed and quiet hanging out in a café is more your thing. 🟣 Accessibility: The cafe is ground floor and claims disabled toilet and access, baby changing facilities, wifi, and air conditioning (only one toilet though, which can occasionally mean a longer queue for that than for service). The cafe is opposite Tottenham Court Road bus stop S (busses 14, 176). It is on the junction so taxis will need to stop outside it. From Tottenham Court Road station head south on Charing Cross Road, take the left on Denmark Street, and then keep straight. It's under the large bright yellow Lego building. 🟣 More Info: Facebook group: [facebook.com/bicoffeelondon/](https://www.facebook.com/groups/bicoffeelondon/) Old Bi Coffee website (ignore the outdated location,map): [bi.tocotox.org/bicoffeelondon/](http://bi.tocotox.org/bicoffeelondon/) Venue: [website](https://caffenero.com/uk/store/central-st-giles-654/) / tel:[02072407412](tel:02072407412).

Calling all WOMEN to join us for a time of sharing experiences and encouraging each other over a cuppa and cake. Please note: Women's only event, men will be asked to leave promptly! Living Room Club Glengall Grove

And we're back! We are excited to announce that on Wednesday, March 4th, we will host our first AI Exchange event of the year at AWS London. Join us for another night of insightful conversations, expert perspectives and real world examples exploring how AI is being built, scaled, and applied across industries. We have three brilliant talks to kick us off this year. Hope to see you there and please RSVP as soon as you can to secure your place. **Agenda:** **[Kaitlin Brabec](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kaitlinbrabec/) @ [We Build AI](https://www.linkedin.com/company/webuild-ai/)** **Practical Tips For Using AI To Enhance And Accelerate Your Work (Without Compromising On Quality Or Learning) by an AI Engineer** As AI becomes embedded in how we work, the expectation to deliver quickly and correctly is higher than ever. But the real opportunity is how to use AI to genuinely grow, both personally and professionally, along the way. Kaitlin shares real examples from her work as an AI Engineer - from picking up software engineering best practices, to data engineering techniques, to project management tasks - and the simple habits she developed to use AI in a way that builds real knowledge you can reuse and lean on next time. Kaitlin also shares how she stays up to date with the latest AI learnings to keep refining her technique and growing over time. Whether you're technical or not, this session will provide practical tips to use AI whilst balancing quality output and self-development. Kaitlin is a Senior AI Engineer at WeBuild-AI. Kaitlin has 4 years of hands-on experience delivering GenAI and Agentic AI solutions to enterprise clients, with a focus on the energy and utilities sectors. Recent client feedback includes "I'm very impressed with the speed and quality of work that was delivered on this project". Kaitlin is passionate about using AI not just to build, but to keep growing her skills outside the norms and sharing best practices with both the WeBuild-AI team and beyond. Outside of work, Kaitlin is a keen athlete and is currently training for her next half Ironman race. **[Amit Dhingra](https://www.linkedin.com/in/amitdhingra7/) @ AWS** **The Agentic Enterprise: How AI Agents Are Rebuilding Business in 2026** This session explores the transformative shift from AI assistants to autonomous AI agents in 2026, showcasing real-world production deployments across finance and retail that are fundamentally changing how businesses operate. The Paradigm Shift: We've moved from AI as chatbots (2023) and copilots (2025) to autonomous agents (2026) that plan, decide, and execute complete workflows independently. While 64% of professionals now use AI agents, only 25% use them regularly—creating a widening competitive gap. Amit will discuss how agentic AI differs fundamentally from current AI tools they useConcrete examples of agents operating in production today. The career implications for developers, technical professionals, and business leaders. Unlike the internet transition that took 20 years, the agentic AI shift is happening in 20 months. Organizations that master agent orchestration in 2026 will have significant competitive advantages, while those waiting risk falling permanently behind. **Lisa Smisson @** **[Sky](https://www.linkedin.com/company/sky/)** **AI Journey and Software Development Transformation Summary** Lisa's AI journey started with a simple need: creating illustrations for a story she’d written for her daughter. After her arty husband quoted a couple of weeks to create a few pictures to illustrate it, she decided to try ChatGPT's image generation capabilities. In just a few hours, she created all the illustrations needed, a moment that revealed AI's transformative potential. Lisa will take us through her journey of software development using AI coding assistants, without ever having written a line of code. Calling out key points to consider on AI transformation. Lisa is an AI Delivery Manager at NBCUniversal/Sky, on her 12-month AI journey and its implications for software development transformation. We look forward to seeing you all soon!

This Women’s Day, we’re gathering for something simple and meaningful - a relaxed, walk-focused afternoon dedicated to celebrating small wins, good conversation, and the kind of growth that often goes unnoticed. This event is for women only. 📍 **Plan** We’ll meet at **Hermanos Colombian Coffee (Blackhorse Road area)** at **12:00pm**, settle in briefly, and then head towards **Walthamstow Wetlands (Forest Road entrance).** Walthamstow Wetlands is Europe’s largest urban wetland nature reserve and home to herons, cormorants, great crested grebes, and if we’re lucky… maybe even a kingfisher sighting. No promises, but eyes up 😉 The afternoon will be mostly walk-focused, with a gentle stroll through nature and a short reflective pause along the way - nothing intense, just a small intentional moment to mark the occasion. Depending on the weather and group energy, we may stop at the café inside the Wetlands for a short break. On our way back towards **Walthamstow Central**, we’ll make a light bakery stop before wrapping up around **3:00pm**. ⛅️ If London weather decides to be London weather, we’ll adapt the route and spend more time indoors while keeping the spirit of the gathering intact. Please Bring your ID as some Venues in London might request it at the entrance. Please Mind your social behaviour and personal belongings, the organiser accepts no liability. Thank you :)

Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

Mjomii is a sweet and wonderful place with very high quality desserts and teas. It is kind of small, so if it is crowded, there may not be seating for everyone the whole time. If you can take a small break from work and come over and say hi and get a "pick-me-up", that would be great!

This, her mother has told her, is the only way to get a "louding voice" -- the ability to speak for herself and decide her own future. But instead, Adunni's father sells her to be the third wife of a local man who is eager for her to bear him a son and heir. When Adunni runs away to the city, hoping to make a better life, she finds that the only other option before her is servitude to a wealthy family. As a yielding daughter, a subservient wife, and a powerless slave, Adunni is told, by words and deeds, that she is nothing. But while misfortunes might muffle her voice for a time, they cannot mute it. And when she realizes that she must stand up not only for herself, but for other girls, for the ones who came before her and were lost, and for the next girls, who will inevitably follow, she finds the resolve to speak, however she can--in a whisper, in song, in broken English--until she is heard
