What is Heart Meditation?
In our busy lives, many of us are searching for a sense of calm and inner peace. For centuries, teachers on the path of self-discovery have shared practices that help quiet the mind and open the heart. One such method uses ancient rhythmic patterns to guide us into a clear, balanced connection between mind and heart.

This simple yet profound practice allows each person to touch the natural wisdom, peace, and love that already exist within. Because it focuses on the universal human experience of the heart, it transcends religious or cultural boundaries and is open to all.

Why the heart?
Modern research, including studies from the HeartMath Institute, shows that the heart generates electromagnetic fields far stronger than those of the brain. When we are relaxed and centred, the heart, brain, and breath naturally synchronise—supporting both emotional balance and physical wellbeing.

Through heart-based meditation, we can gently influence this harmony, helping to reduce stress, steady the mind, and foster overall health.

What to expect
This half-day workshop introduces the practice of Heart Meditation, as outlined in the book Heart Meditation (www.heartmeditation.eu). With the Daf drum, a traditional hand frame drum, you will explore rhythms designed to guide awareness inward.

The day will include both discussion and practice:

• Hands-on practice with the Daf drum (no prior experience needed, drums are provided)
• Relaxation and breath-work
• Deepening your connection to the heart through meditation
• Learning from your own direct experiences
• Bringing these techniques into daily life to nurture ongoing peace

Practical details

• Time: 1.30pm - 5.30pm (including a 20min break)
• Location: Zenw2 Studio,12, Queen's Parade, Walm Lane, London Nw2 5HT

We look forward to welcoming you to this workshop.

Previous Testimonials:

"The heart meditation seminar has revealed a lot of ancient wisdom and I could get an even deeper level of understanding. I loved the fact that we talked about many spiritual aspects/topics. The part of the music with the daf was a reminder of how important it is i.e. to understand the rhythm of the universe and how we are connected to our creator/nature/universe. It is a simple, yet very effective tool which I can use in my daily life, as it helps me stay connected. It was super interesting to discuss the heart in depth and how everything is interconnected to it."

"Attending this workshop and subsequent classes has had a bigger impact on my life than anything previously. Before that point I didn’t realise the fundamental existential questions that remained unanswered in my mind, and I was unaware of how this affected me in my daily life - like a constant background noise I had simply become accustomed to. The technique and principles taught are profound and yet so simple, essentially anyone with a heart and an open mind is able to benefit!

As with all spiritual paths, the journey is the destination and the path is never ending, but I am grateful in every moment to have found a path and experienced guides, that emphasise the importance of personal experience above all else, and lead towards true inner peace and self discovery."
