The London Centre for Spirituality is based in the heart of the City of London. They offer a wide range of courses, meditation and discussion groups and resources for all interested in spirituality - churchgoers or not - both in the local and in the wider community. They host several spiritual direction training programmes, and their facilities are used by professionals and organisations working in related areas including counselling.
Jewish Spiritual Direction / Yedidya Center – ‘spiritual direction is a relationship in which one dedicates a regular period of time to the exploration of the divine presence in one’s life. Spiritual companions (or “directors”) support individuals as they seek to deepen their relationship with the holy. This practice is a potent tool for helping individuals notice the sacred dimension that underlies all life, open to experiences of oneness, and recognize the ways in which they may be guided or accompanied along their life journey. Responding powerfully to the deep spiritual hunger felt by so many in our time, Jewish Spiritual Direction helps the seeker explore Jewish pathways to a nourishing relationship with the divine and with Jewish tradition.’
Landmark Education – a global training and development organisation offering transformational training courses. Including the Landmark Forum.
Alternatives – Alternatives is a place of inspiration, wellbeing and community in the heart of London. ‘Seeks to inspire new visions for living through holistic education and connection to the sacred dimension of life’. We host Monday talks at St James’s Church, Piccadilly and weekend workshops in spirituality, creativity, well-being and self-development. Since 1982, we have welcomed the most well-known names in the Mind Body Spirit world. We are dedicated to the exploration of diverse ways of living and being. We honour all spiritual traditions and welcome people of all cultures.’
The Amma community – inspired by leader ‘Amma’. To quote from the website – ‘‘As a child, I always wanted to know the cause of misery of mankind and thought that if sorrow is a truth, then there must be a cause and a way out.’ Amma explains.’ I realize my purpose is to console - to personally wipe away tears through selfless love, compassion, and service.’Amma has inspired innumerable humanitarian activities all over the world. Some of them are free food and clothing programs, charitable hospitals, hospices, disaster relief programs, free homes for the poor and the needy, medical camps, orphanage, schools, educational institutions, widows' pension scheme, free legal advice, preservation of nature and so on. The list is long and growing everyday. Amma says,’ Compassion to the poor and the needy is our duty to God.’ Through the example of her own life Amma has inspired people from all over the world to walk in the path of selfless-service and compassion towards all beings.’
