Press Pause
Weekly drop-in meditation for busy professionals
When did you last press pause at work?
For much of the day, we move from task to task, meeting to meeting, and notification to notification, rarely taking time to notice what we're thinking or how we're feeling.
These open-access drop-in mindfulness sessions provide a dedicated space in which to slow down and allow your mind to rest, reset and refocus.
Whether you're new to meditation or already have an established practice, Press Pause provides a regular opportunity to stop, recharge and reconnect with yourself.
We meet on online on Thursdays at 13:30hrs UK time.
Session overview
The 30-minute session is divided into three parts:
The main part is the guided meditation (15 minutes approximately). Every Thursday we practice a different one so that you discover which kind benefits you best.
Ahead of the meditation we explore an aspect of psychological wellbeing, mindfulness or a principle of meditation. Sometimes more than one.
After the practice there's time to ask questions and share your experience (if you wish to).
Content is drawn from neuroscience, mindfulness and meditation published research, as well as clinical Mindfulness-Based (MB) Stress Reduction and MB Cognitive Therapy courses.
Who should attend?
Press Pause is for professionals who want to feel calmer, think more clearly and navigate the demands of modern work with greater ease and resilience.
Whether you're new to mindfulness or have been meditating for years, you're welcome to join. Guidance is provided before and during each meditation, making the sessions accessible to all levels of experience.
Duration
Sessions last for 30 minutes. The guided meditation is approximately 15 minutes.
Delivery
Classes are held on MS Teams on Thursdays at 13.30hrs UK time.
The sessions are not recorded and you can leave your camera off if you wish.

What people say
Drop-in Meditation
The best way to spend a lunchtime
I was introduced to Tracey when she ran an inhouse lunchtime wellbeing session at my company. I found the technique she shared an extremely beneficial way to reduce stress and restore calm during a working day.
Attending her weekly lunchtime drop-in session has since become an important part of my week. It provides a reset in my busy day and ensures that I take time to focus on ways to relax and manage stress.
Each session begins with an introduction to the practice that we’re going to use. This is essential in understanding how you benefit from the varying techniques she shares and encourages you to practice independently.
Tracey’s drop-in session is the best way to spend a lunchtime as it reenergises you, both mentally and physically. The structure of the sessions – theory and practice - has helped to reduce anxiety and rumination.

The most important self-care activity of my week
I'm always pleased when I get the time to join these sessions. Every week Tracey shares something new with us that's helpful and relevant.
Spending 30 minutes doing meditation with Tracey is probably the most important self-care activity of my week.

Feeling stressed? Sit with Tracey
I didn't know what to expect and thought mindfulness and meditation were totally out there.
Having attended these drop-in sessions I can tell you that what Tracey shares has changed my life. If you are feeling stressed, go sit with Tracey.
