Life has always been here. We just don’t notice it when our minds are somewhere else.
Meditation and mindfulness are not about escaping life or becoming someone different. They are about learning to be fully present with your experience. As you begin to understand how your mind works, you develop a different relationship with your thoughts, emotions and body. From this awareness comes greater calm, clarity, resilience and a deeper sense of connection with yourself and life.
Our approach is practical, grounded and accessible. Rather than trying to stop your thoughts or “empty the mind,” we teach simple, evidence-informed practices that can be integrated into everyday life.
Meditation may support you if you are:
Through regular practice, you can begin to:
Mindfulness Mentor/Meditation Teacher Shilani Perera offers both personalised one-on-one sessions and small group sessions. Whether you’re new to meditation or looking to deepen your practice, you’ll be guided in a warm, supportive environment where you can explore mindfulness at your own pace.
Somewhere along the way, many of us move away from drawing, colouring, making, exploring and playing simply for the joy of it. Adult life can become increasingly focused on responsibilities, productivity and getting things done, leaving little space for curiosity, creativity and simply being.
The Playful Pause is an invitation to rediscover that part of ourselves.
Each monthly gathering is intentionally small, creating a relaxed and welcoming space to slow down, play, create and reconnect. You’ll be gently guided through simple creative activities, mindfulness, meditation and reflection with plenty of room to explore at your own pace.
You might find yourself working on a puzzle, colouring a mandala, drawing, creating something with your hands or simply allowing yourself to be curious. From there, we’ll move into guided meditation and quiet reflection, noticing what happens when we shift from doing to being.
There is nothing to prepare and no experience needed. You don’t need to be creative, and there is no right or wrong way to participate. There is space to share your thoughts and experiences if you’d like to, and space to simply be quiet if you prefer.
We’ll finish with afternoon tea, conversation and connection, an opportunity to slow down together, share a cuppa and perhaps reflect on something you discovered along the way.
Each workshop will be a little different, but the intention remains the same: to create space for play, creativity, presence and connection.
Come as you are, bring your curiosity and give yourself permission to pause.
One-on-one sessions offer the opportunity to explore mindfulness and meditation in a more personal and individual way.
Whether you’re new to meditation, wanting to establish a regular practice, feeling overwhelmed, navigating a period of change, or simply looking for more space to reconnect with yourself, each session is tailored to your individual needs and experiences.
Meditation and mindfulness can also be explored alongside other forms of therapy and care. For those already working with a health or wellbeing practitioner, these sessions can provide additional practical tools to support self-awareness, presence and everyday wellbeing, and can be incorporated alongside other therapies where appropriate.
Sessions may include:
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Together, we explore practices that feel natural, meaningful and sustainable for you, with the intention of helping you develop greater awareness, calm and connection in everyday life.
Sessions are available in person at Alive Physio & Wellness or Online.
