9AM | EVERY SUNDAY | NOWRA CBD
Be Here Nowra host a weekly group meditation in Nowra CBD from 9am - 10am. There is time for Q&A with a range of teachers from Be Here Nowra, including myself, alternating hosting. Chats can continue afterward with teachers and fellow meditators with an optional drink at Hyper Hyper Coffee. If you have learnt Vedic Meditation, you will have the option to be added to the Be Here Nowra WhatsApp community, which includes a dedicated group meditation chat - where weekly group meditation locations and teachers will be announced.
An in person introduction talk is typically hosted by a Be Here Nowra teacher afterwards at 10am if you have friends or family in town who may like to come along
6:30PM | EVERY WEDNESDAY | ONLINE
My incredible colleague Lozz, who also teaches with Be Here Nowra, offers a weekly online group meditation on a Wednesday evening from6:30pm-7:30pm. This can be joined from the comfort of your own home, office or wherever you might be. If you have learnt Vedic Meditation, you will have the option to be added to the Be Here Nowra WhatsApp community, which includes a dedicated chat for online group meditation. Lozz will confirm each week via WhatsApp, and provide the link. Get comfy and bring your questions!
SUNRISE | MONDAY | SAILOR'S GRAVE BEACH, VINCENTIA
Roughly every second Monday I host sunrise group med on the beach in Vincentia, followed by an optional swim in the ocean. This needs to fit in with my shift work schedule, the timing of sunrise and is weather dependant, so sunrise group meditation is announced in a WhatsApp group to confirm details the day prior. If you have learnt Vedic Meditation, you will have the option to be added to the Be Here Nowra WhatsApp community, which includes a dedicated chat for sunrise group meditation. You will find all the details there and can be notified each week if sunrise group meditation is going ahead.
This is open to the community and anyone is welcome. If someone would like to attend and hasn't yet learnt Vedic Meditation, they can enjoy any silent practice they already have, or simply sit quietly and enjoy the fresh air and start to the day.
If you can't make one of the above options and would like to join a regular group meditation, I have colleagues all over the world who offer online group meditation and Q&A and they would be happy to see you. There are also plenty of teachers around who offer in person group meditation, so if you're moving away, or travelling, and would like to try find a group meditation near you, reach out and I can see if there's someone in the area I can recommend for you!
My colleagues, Barron Hanson - Be Here Nowra and Joh Jarvis - The Light Inside, come together each winter to offer Rounding Retreats in The Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia.
This year I will also be assisting them on their 4 day retreat and I cannot recommend these retreats highly enough.

Join in the fun as Be Here Nowra hosts HERE in Nowra 2026 - a month full of Vedic wisdom, workshops and community events, right here in the Shoalhaven.
In October, meditators from all over the world will return to the area for the 2nd, biannual HERE in Nowra festival. It's a month of free wisdom talks, retreats, consultations, group meditation, knowledge courses, workshops, social events and more. I'd love to see you there.
