Mindfulness comes in different flavours. While many people find it helpful to anchor attention on the breath, body or sounds — as primarily taught in classic Breathworks courses — there are other ways to practise too.

Evolving Awareness is a new course led by Senior Trainer Ginny Wall, offering the chance to explore a subtly different approach: natural or effortless mindfulness.

Instead of focusing on the content of your experience — like thoughts, sensations or pain — this style of practice invites you to rest in the awareness that holds it all.

Some meditators find it a gentler, more intuitive way to practise mindfulness - one that can offer relief when you're feeling overwhelmed, in pain, or anxious. It's a tool that can complement traditional mindfulness, or as a new way in if this hasn't worked for you before.

Who Is This For?

This course is for anyone who wants to explore a different way of practising mindfulness — one that’s more spacious, intuitive, and easeful. You might:

• Have an established practice but feel drawn to something new

• Be living with pain, anxiety or overwhelm and want to relate to it differently

• Have struggled with traditional mindfulness anchors, such as the breath

• Sometimes feel unsure if you’re “doing it right” and want to practise in a way that’s gentler and more intuitive

• Have tried mindfulness before, but found it hard to stick to

The Six Approaches You'll Explore 

Each week, you’ll unlock a new way of practising awareness — with a short teaching from Ginny, a new guided meditation, and everyday reflections to explore the theme.

Approach 1 — A Spacious Sense of Being

Introducing the idea of the nature of awareness, and a new way of relating to our experience.
🎵 Meditation: Body in Space, Body as Space

Approach 2 — A Knowing Beyond Thought

Entering being mode, dropping into a wordless presence and intelligence that is our deepest nature
🎵 Meditation: A Spacious Field of Awareness

Approach 3 — Touching Into Peace

How to work towards a deep allowing of our full experience — even challenging parts — just as it is. 
🎵 Meditation: Openness & Acceptance

Approach 4 — This Is It

A powerful return to this moment, just as it is. Letting go of striving, fixing, and future focus.
🎵 Meditation: Nowhere Else to Go, Nothing to Change

Approach 5 — What’s Love Got to Do With It?

This week invites us to sense love not just as an emotion, but as a quality of awareness itself.
🎵 Meditation: A Love List

Approach 6 — This Aware Presence

To close the course, we gently ask: what is the awareness that holds everything? And who are we, really, within that?
🎵 Meditation: Gone, Gone
