Background to the mindful mornings club

As I turned 50 on the 8 July 2024 I decided to offer a 50 day meditation challenge. I offered the challenge out to my followers because even though I am a meditation teacher, I'm also a night owl rather than a lark. And living with a 3 year old girl, a 4 year old cockapoo and male husband my life isn't always smooth sailing and often I'm tempted to catch a lie and skip the morning meditation... So a group of intripid women (and one man!) signed up for the challenge and we had amazing results! The discipline of the daily practice and the community that bonded and shared in the classes (and in the what's app) and the effect of the meditations was profound. People got so much out of it, especially those who came every day or most days.

It was however a challenge and I want meditation to be a way of life, so I decided to keep these mornings going (with a break for December 2024) into 2025 with a break every weekend and on bank holidays. It was clear that on weekends less people could come (though still good numbers came) and because I'm making this commitment for a full year I wanted to be kind to my self and those who sign up so we can sleep in to 8am or later on weekends if we like :)

What people said about my morning meditation classes

"The morning meditations with Bridgeen were such a gentle and self-compassionate way to welcome 24 brand new hours and set your intention for self-kindness and care. Highly recommended! 💕" Fiona

"Thank you Bridgeen and all the group for this new and wonderful experience of meditation 🧘." Louise

"Thank you Bridgeen for being you and leading us all so well and so naturally. 50 days of meditation has made me happier and steadier. Now I intend to keep going until we start back in January xxx." Mary

"You have been so important in getting me up every morning bright and early!

I am so impressed with your dedication and loving kindness to everyone❤️

I will miss the morning routine for definite, the mindfulness has been wonderful and has given me that quiet time I need to think clearly about the rest of my day.

Thank you so much!!" Anne C

"Thanks, Bridgeen for the wonderful gift of 50 days meditation. It's been so beneficial, in so many ways. I wouldn't have done it on my own. I know you have been ill and it must have been hard showing up on those days, so grateful that you did 🙏" Patrica

"None of us can make a person practice meditation we can only speak of our experiences

& from mine, investing the time particularly led by Bridgeen has had immeasurable rewards ❤️ A massive thankyou again to Bridgeen, you are truly inspirational!!! Xxx" Maureen

"Beautiful meditation this morning Bridgeen, my cousin who is the same age as me passed away unexpectedly last night and I feel the meditation gave me such strength for the days ahead. Thank you." Deborah

"Thank you Bridgeen. I've found consistency to be the challenge for me but small steps towards big changes... I'm finding that when I show up, especially for at least a few days in a row it really does help me with calmness, awareness and brain fog! I've been noticeably grounded and focused💪....certainly sets me up for the day. 🙏" Clare

Do I need to be a meditator already to join these morning meditations?

Beginners and experienced meditators are welcome. While the morning meditations are not specifically tailored to completed beginners and wee bit of experience will be helpful, there's no reason to prevent you signing up even if you have never meditated before. If you keep coming back every morning you will soon catch on to the practice.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to bring or wear anything?

No just bring yourself, come as you are. I did all 50 days of the mediation challenge in my PJs. Most others did to and plenty did the meditations from their bed!

Do I record the meditations?

No. Not currently though this is something I may reconsider in the future. But for now the challenge is to get up and practice at the same time as everyone else, together as a group. Also it means I dont have to worry about the technical side of recording and distributing recordings.

7.30am doesn't suit me. Can I offer another time?

I wish could offer a time to suit everyone. For now this is the time that suits best. I may consider an earlier time in future. I know 7.30am is time when many are travelling or working. The timing of the morning meditations is something I will keep under review. Message me your preferred time.

Can I buy a month for a friend?

Yes you can purchase a month of mindful mornings for your friend just message me on What's App 07981 623 566 and I will send your friend a welcome text.

I'm gonna commit to meditate can I buy multiple months or the full year?

Yes you can sign up for a whole year in advance or create a direct debit on a rolling basis (cancel anytime), or buy a block of months or just a one off. It's flexible and entirely up to you. Message me on 07981 623 566 if you want to save the eventbrite fee and make an arrangement.

Can I join the class anytime in the month?

Yes you can join our mindful mornings meditation anytime in the month but you still have to pay the full £20 so its much better value to join at the start of the month.

Is it ok if I can only come a couple of mornings a week?

Yes the amount of meditations you attend is entirely up to you. No one takes a role call. You can plan in advance to attend 3 mornings per week, or you can intend to do them all but sleep in or have to go to work early and miss a class. It's up to you, there is no judgement or need for explanation.
