Meditation and Mindfulness for Vegans

We meet the first and third Monday of each month at 6pm Pacific / 7pm MT / 8pm CT / 9pm ET. Please note that while our route to mindfulness and compassion generally follows a vegan path, all are welcome – vegan, vegan-curious, and vegan-supportive. For our annual schedule and weekly discussion topics, click here.

Vegan Meditation is affiliated with the Compassion Consortium.

Please note these important details:

• As a security precaution, you must be signed in to a Zoom account to join the meeting. Zoom accounts are free at https://www.zoom.us/ (click signup) and you'll need to log in there BEFORE joining the meditation. If this is your first time, please register at that link in advance because doing so takes a few minutes.
• Please use a computer or tablet, as some Zoom features don’t work on a phone, and phones in general don't work well for our Zoom Meetups.
• Talking during the discussion is completely optional, but to help reduce trolling we ask that all participants keep their webcams on (and stay on webcam) during the entire session.
• Meditation begins promptly on the hour, so please arrive on time. When you enter, you'll see a meditation timer counting down from 15 minutes – that's your cue to begin meditating silently (or listen to your own guided meditation). We don't provide meditation instruction, but the basics are easy to learn through various online resources such as those here and here.
• While we officially end at the 45-minute mark, depending on the number of people sharing, we may run later. If that happens, please feel free to stay or leave at any time as you choose.
• The Zoom link will be displayed on the Meetup event page after you RSVP. We'll also send the Zoom link and discussion topic in a reminder email the day of the event. If you'd like to receive this reminder email, please keep your Meetup notification settings turned on.

See you soon!

Hi Friends! 🐼🌿
Rivendell Sanctuary in Temecula is hosting another Friends' Table Vegan Dinner — and this one is inspired by Panda Express, since they dropped all their vegan options (Boo! 👎). We're doing it better anyway.
Think: Orange Chick'n, Fried Rice, Chow Mein, Spring Rolls, Garlic Crispy Tofu, and inspired vegan desserts — all served around a gorgeous candlelit communal table (100+ candles!) for a cozy, lingering dinner experience.
📅 April 11th | 4–9 PM 🐓 Come early to meet the rescued farm animals or walk the sanctuary trails 🎟️ $40/person | Only 20 seats — these go fast!
A wonderful way to meet fellow vegans and support the sanctuary's rescue work. Menu, details, and tickets at the link below. 🌱
