About Us

Breathing Space aims to offer a little balance to a competitive and stress filled culture.

We exist to nurture and encourage the creative spirit. We offer space for relaxation, contemplation, creativity, community, inspirational workshops and fun. People of all faiths and none are welcome. We honour our Christian roots and welcome and work with people from other traditions, and none, in pursuit of the common good. Find out more by taking a look at the programme.

The Breathing Space Yurt is a unique resource centre and a place of quiet inspiration; it is an organic structure and embodies much of our ethos. It provides a beautiful space on the northern edge of London and lends itself to a culture of peace, co-operation and care for the environment.

We are in sympathy with the aims of the Slow Movement and Slow Down London and are seeking to integrate a contemplative lifestyle with active creativity; space for expression and silence. We also aim to raise awareness on issues of peace and justice. From this underlying ethos we weave together a varied programme of events.
