About this Event

Whitworth Park & Alex Bernstein Garden, FREE

Meditation in Nature is an opportunity for you to switch-off and experience a deep sense of calm whilst enjoying the beauty of the grounds at The Whitworth. When we are mindful in nature, we are able to be in the present moment much quicker than if we were indoors, this is because nature offers us an abundance of beauty and our natural curiosity is heightened by the sights, sounds and smells. At the end of the session, you will experience feeling lighter, less stressed and having a sense that you have connected to something bigger than yourself. These sessions are delivered by our Natural and Cultural Health Service Partner, Lilasuri (Claire) Morris from Wild Awake Mindfulness.

Celebrate the spring equinox with a gentle Meditation in Nature experience in the Alex Bernstein Garden. This guided session will create an opportunity to pause at the moment of seasonal balance, when light and dark meet and new growth begins.

Through simple mindfulness practices and quiet observation, you’ll be encouraged to tune into the rhythms of the garden, reflect on renewal and intention, and reconnect with nature as a space for grounding, change, and possibility. No experience needed—just an openness to slow down and welcome the season ahead.

To attend, please arrive no later than 5:55pm and meet by the park side reception. Please note that entry to the gallery after 5pm is via the Oxford Road entrance.
