Centering in the Presence of Love
We trust Love’s eternal wisdom with the firm confidence that all that is touched by Love remembers Love and naturally returns to Love. The intention of our practice is to be totally open to Love.
This is a capacity that everyone has. A gift already given.
In this practice, we bring together the wisdom of mystical and contemplative meditation traditions with psychological understanding and insights from modern science. We place our attention into the heart and remember the Presence of Love. As thoughts, feelings, worries or distractions arise, we release them into the care of Love and gently return — again and again. The practice is this continual movement of remembering, releasing and returning to Love. There is no particular state to achieve or silence to maintain. You will experience the practice in your unique way and over time, this movement becomes a natural way of returning to Love in everyday life. We are talking about benefits more here.
You can practice anywhere, anytime from minutes to hours to days. You can create your own version and or join our weekly practice groups which especially at the beginning will help you learn centering yourself in the presence of Love.
Our sessions: Each session is 30 minutes long and run by volunteers.
Our facilitator guide us into the Presence of Love through a short Invocation and Centering Chant, bringing our attention into the heart. This is followed by 20 minutes of silence, where we practise releasing our thoughts into Love and continually returning to the open-ended awareness of the Presence of Love, resting in the reality of Love herself. Each thought that arises becomes another opportunity to return to Love.
The session closes with a beautiful reading from the facilitator.
There are no conversations during the practice sessions. The space is dedicated entirely to the shared practice.
We recommend joining at least one online or in-person Immersion Day to explore the depth and background of the practice and discover further tools to support your own practice.

We offer our practice sessions for free and welcome donations so that we can grow our offerings and remain donation-based.
This is a community practice, not a therapeutic or clinical service.
