🧘‍♀️ About the Meditation Club
Think of this as a Meditation Club — similar to a running club.
Just as runners train for physical well-being, we meet regularly to cultivate mental clarity, presence, and inner stillness.
Meditation grows through consistency and shared practice. Sitting together in silence often makes it easier to relax, learn naturally from each other, and deepen awareness.
We occasionally explore practical or scientific perspectives on meditation (such as EEG brainwave tracking), but the main focus is simply being present together.
