Where to find guided meditation on the NSW Central Coast
Here are some available meditation centres and guides on the New South Wales Central Coast, according to the internet.
There's a lockdown. It (hopefully) won't continue forever. Some of the Central Coast locals give online meditation sessions. Others are planning events for when the restrictions ease. I did the Googling and visited the web sites to save you some time.
Edit: I have not attended all these places. I just did the research online to see what's out there.
