| Meditate for Madagascar |
Are you interested in Madagascar and the world of yoga and
meditation? If so there is a chance to combine both worlds by attending a
meditative sit-in!
Our supporter Laura Sewell attends yoga and meditation
groups in Oxford and wherever else she can get to. Recently she started raising
funds for MfM by selling Malagasy vanilla at a local alternative health centre
in Oxford. This has raised both funds and interest in Madagascar. The
fundraising idea has caught on and members of local yoga and meditation groups
are holding a ‘Meditation Sit-in’ to raise funds for four charities including
MfM. The organisers, Teresa Kay, Neville Dowley and Anita Lewis describe the
event as follows:
‘We are organising a meditative
sit-in. We want to bring together as many meditators as possible to
practice with a collective attitude of kindness and well-wishing; and also to
experience the benefits of big group practice and help build our meditative
community. People from any tradition or none are welcome and whatever your
style of practice we can meet in silence. There will be no formal teaching; the
event will be led by Anita Lewis and Neville Dowley. It will raise money for the
following charities:
Date and Time: 18th
April 6.30-9.00pm
Venue: Wytham
Village Hall, Oxford, OX2 8QA.

Please bring anything you need to
sit comfortably. There will be chairs available.
Tea will be provided.
Please let Teresa Kay know by email (dowleykay@gmail.com )
if you plan to attend. Please forward this email to any meditators that
you know who might like to join us. We would love to have as big a group as
possible.’
So, whether you are new to
meditation or an experience practitioner, why not have a go and support MfM at
the same time.
