MOVIEGOERS are being invited to discover how to find inner peace through an inspiring film which is to be shown at The Witham, in Barnard Castle.

The film, A Mindful Choice, shows the impact that meditation has had on people’s lives across the world.

It has been brought to The Witham by meditation coaches Diana Marks, from Barnard Castle, and Kate Schott, from Darlington.

Ms Schott said: “It was made by friends of ours based in New Zealand.

“They spent quite a lot of time talking to people all over the world, people in prisons in South America, schools and even mums in Yorkshire. It is looking at the impact of meditation globally.”

She added that the film crew went to places where there is no peace at all, but people have been able to find it within themselves.

“Peace is an inside job,” she said.

Ms Marks turned to meditation in 1998 and believes it has turned her life around.

She said: “I had in the past had mental health issues which I can honestly say no longer exist. Hopefully I am a lot nicer person.”

The feature length documentary shows a diverse range of people from ballet dancers and writers to stressed businesspeople and a cancer patient making a choice for a better life through meditation. It will be screened on Thursday, June 29, at 7.30pm.

Ms Schott said: “It is quite a powerful film. Come and see it and be uplifted.”
