Learn the art of meditation for peace, emotional understanding and happiness. Mindfulness is a simple, practical and self-empowering way for you to improve your health, resolve relationship conflicts and enable yourself to discard limiting beliefs that are holding you back. Mindfulness has been shown to reduce anxiety levels by 58% and stress by 40% (Krusche et al, 2013, Oxford University).
Led by Karuna Priya, a former Buddhist monk and Chaplain to Imperial College London, and Nitima Priya, a Holistic Counsellor and Head of Education at Akanista Mindfulness.

Testimonials
I absolutely love the Akanista Mindfulness. The classes really helped me de-stress and become more focused. I would recommend them to anyone wanting to try mindfulness for the first time or looking to enhance their practice.
I started the sessions with insomnia and difficulties in dealing with the stresses of undertaking a challenging Masters programme. By only the third week, I was sleeping much better and was more relaxed and focused. Thank you!
Karuna has shown me a simple yet highly effective way of becoming calmer and focused in my day to day life. The recordings that are provided at the end of each class are helping me practise the techniques on a daily basis.
I felt fantastic. So much more grounded and this was a massive lesson in dealing with stressful situations. Karuna has something really special about him.
