Our purpose

A calm and understandable place to begin meditation

We want a lack of experience, language barriers or the cost of classes not to prevent someone from trying meditation. At a Jõhvi meeting you can practise with a facilitator and ask questions, then continue at home with our free guides. Meetings are donation based, and resources are available in Estonian, Russian and English.

03 / First practice

Try a 5-minute meditation

A simple beginner practice you can try straight away in a quiet place.

  1. Sit comfortably and let the shoulders soften.
  2. Notice three calm in-breaths and out-breaths.
  3. When thoughts move elsewhere, gently return to breathing.
