What's on in Long Wittenham

Oxfordshire, England

Long Wittenham sits snugly beside the Thames and doesn't need much to keep its residents entertained. The Pendon Museum has been holding shows for years, and there's usually a craft stall or market within easy reach of the riverbank. It is not bad for a quiet corner of Oxfordshire. Pub quizzes pop up through the week and the odd family event keeps things interesting. Near Here pulls it all into one place so you're not stuck checking a dozen websites on a Sunday evening.

Meditation and Yoga

Nearly every Sunday but good to arrive after 10. 10.15 to 11.15 am Free or by donation. Heartfulness is a modern system of Raja Yoga practised now in 160 countries in the world. It is simple and natural and helps us to connect to our inner source within our heart and find increasing balance, grounded ness and compassion. In our friendly group we start with a guided relaxation which helps lead us into resting in the space of our heart and to go deeper into peace and harmony within. This takes about 30 minutes followed by reflection and sharing refreshments and chat. Everyone over 18 most welcome.
