The Breathworks Foundation

Making mindfulness accessible

We are a registered charity, with a mission is to make mindfulness accessible to everyone. Being an organisation that gives back has been important to us from the very beginning. Our Founder Vidyamala was living on benefits for many years before she was able to secure funding through a disability grant to start Breathworks. We know that many who benefit the most from our services are least able to afford it, so we are committed to help those in need through bursaries, scholarships, free resources and other funding initiatives.

Support us today.

A unique and limited run of greetings cards featuring Vidyamala's beautiful photography (shown below): £10 for 5 different randomly selected cards.

All profits go to The Breathworks Foundation, which allows people struggling financially to attend Breathworks' life-changing mindfulness courses.

Vidyamala says:

"I have long been fascinated by light. As a teenager I fell in love with photography that has been described as 'painting with light'. These images are expressions of that love.

Over a number of years I took photos on journeys: out of car windows, from trains, while peering down a road. I was captivated by the light and shadow - and the movement. Images appeared that I could never have created with my conscious mind. In the movement of journeying exquisite moments of stillness found form. I think this is like life: always flowing and moving and yet these astonishing moments of beauty appear that can take our breath away if we pause long enough to notice.

I have always loved this quote from TS Eliot and maybe these images are capturing something of this mystery of seeking the still point of the turning world" 

“At the still point of the turning world. Neither flesh nor fleshless;
Neither from nor towards; at the still point, there the dance is,
But neither arrest nor movement. And do not call it fixity,
Where past and future are gathered. Neither movement from nor towards,
Neither ascent nor decline. Except for the point, the still point,
There would be no dance, and there is only the dance.”
