I would have said that I wasn’t suited to meditation; it seemed only to provide me with frustration that I was unable to
‘turn my thoughts off’, but active meditation has changed my attitude altogether. Not only am I able to leave the
confines of my analytical everyday thought process, I feel like I can move unselfconsciously for the first time in a long time.
It is really liberating and I feel completely rejuvenated afterwards (no matter what kind of a day I have had!). It’s nice to
be excited about something which is so good for me!

London Meditation offers the following meditation class:
6-week Meditation Practice Group
at the home of London Meditation:
The Penthouse, 89 – 95 Parkway, Camden Town, NW1 7PP
(Street-map please see here).
Meditative practice needs commitment and continuity to get the most out of it.
You can practise at home or in a special place,
where you can share your experiences (if you like)
with the energies of a temporary
but constant meditation group afterwards
with your fellow meditators and a trained moderator...
Your facilitator Albert G. Tobler designs a programme after the first evening according to the group’s needs by selecting from the broad range of
- OSHO Active Meditations™
- Meditations from The Book of Secrets
- Mindfulness Practice
- Guided Meditations (such as visualisations, and more...)
which can be adjusted if the progress of the group requires it.
It would also be beneficial to attend an Introductory Meditation Course before joining a practice group, but this is not a requirement to become enrolled.
Dates:
- Summer practice group (II) starting Aug 09 – fully booked
- Autumn practice group (I): Oct 04, Oct 11, Oct 18, Oct 25, Nov 01, Nov 08
- Autumn practice group (II) starting Nov 15
Time: Mondays 7 - 9pm
Cost: £ 80

Voices of the practice group
- Summer practice group (I) 2010:
- "Thank you – I found the practice group perfect for me as I had never meditated before and felt it was a good introduction."
- "I enjoyed the different experiments in meditation techniques, also enjoyed the post-meditative conversations, especially when everyone was relaxes and debates arose. Albert is insightful and eloquent. I like his style of teaching."
- "I am really glad I had this experience. It’s very different to meditation on your own. I will come back for further ’adventures’ in the future!"
- "Once again a highly enjoyable yet challenging course. Albert’s wisdom should be bottled and sold!"
- "This is an exciting and adventurous course taken by an experienced and eloquent teacher. Could be renamed ’Adventures in Meditation’ to reflect its explorations of many different styles of meditation. Many thanks."
- "I enjoyed being in a larger group. I was wary at first, but I really enjoy meditating with more people. Also, I felt the meditation in these 6 weeks very experimental and has at times taken me out of my comfort zone."
- Spring practice group 2010:
- "I personally feel London Meditation is a great place to meditate; it is welcoming, friendly and safe. I am even recommending it to all my friends."
- "Thank you for showing me another way of living, being, thinking and experiencing life. Very good atmosphere."
- "It was good being able to choose direction in which the group was going and to have enough information which helped to make this decision. This choice – it made the group feel personal, also being able to reflect on/share experiences after."
- "This was really useful and accessible and I will definitely come back for more."
- "Previously I felt meditation, when practised at home, was beneficial but I lacked discipline to do it each day. Now, thanks to the class and your words, I can see that it is not about a chore or an activity, and that the time to contemplate is therapeutic and yet difficult. But that is ok! I hope I can continue to meditate and thank you for the guidance. It has been and continues to be enjoyable."
- "I found the tips very useful such as, what to do when you have an itch/pain."
- "The strengths of the class were the introduction to a wide range of different meditative techniques, all thoroughly enjoyable in their own way. Great! See you soon!"
