Alone in Antarctica

This event has already happened!

In January 2012, almost 100 years to the day after Captain Scott reached the South Pole, Felicity Aston became the first woman in history to ski across Antarctica alone.  For 59 days Felicity dragged 85kg of supplies 1744 km across the coldest continent on earth, enduring temperatures as low as minus 40 degrees and storm force winds. Spending two months alone in this extreme landscape, where even the smallest mistakes can prove treacherous, was a gruelling yet remarkable experience.  Using her own footage and stunning images from her expedition, Felicity will transport the audience to the last true remaining wilderness on Earth.

Meditation

with Simon Millward

Meditation is a way of learning to relax and to respond creatively to the challenges which life throws at us. It can also help to reduce stress. By learning to meditate we are finding space in our busy lives to get in touch with ourselves and develop awareness of what is going on in our mind and in the world around us. If we think of finding happiness, inner peace, as a state of mind then meditation can help us to achieve that goal.

I teach two complimentary practices, one which focuses on the breath and the other which focuses on the emotions. I have been meditating for a number of years and learnt the practices with the Triratna Buddhist Community, a movement which has adapted Buddhism in a way that is relevant for western cultures.
