Humanist Contemplatives focus on self improvement, introspection, and pursuing eudaimonia (the flourishing, good life). Some may meditate or engage in other contemplative practices. They seek to experience the profound in the arts and explore new ideas and traditional inspirations on spirituality in a naturalistic context. They strive to be virtuous and compassionate in character. Humanist Contemplatives are Humanists with a particular focus on the personal aspects of a life practice. Major influences include Stoicism, philosophical Buddhism, the Enlightenment, and more.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE A HUMANIST TO JOIN THIS GROUP.
