Weekly Community Social Meditation

This group is open to practitioners of all ages and experience (including those new to meditation) interested in exploring meditation practice in a secular, non-dogmatic environment.

Practice begins with half an hour of silent meditation (instruction available), followed by social meditation. Social meditation is a practice of mindful communication (think meditative talking circle) in which body, speech and mind come together to help us bring congruency to our experience and communication in the present moment. The practice fosters a sense of both confidence and community.

While engaging vulnerably with your own experience is encouraged during this practice, this is not meant to be a therapy group and is not a replacement for therapy. The facilitators are not trained mental health professionals. In order to keep this practice safe, anything shared during this practice should be considered confidential. You are welcome to discuss your own experience outside of practice, but please do not discuss others' experiences or refer to anything shared during group unless the person who shared brings it up first.
