A Message from Dan
A few years ago, I was moving through a hard season of depression and went looking for relief. What I found in meditation turned out to be so much more than a way to feel better. It became a path back to myself: my own stillness, my own steadiness and a quieter sense of who I actually am underneath everything else. That discovery changed my life and it's why I now get to share it with others.

About Stillness With Dan
Here's what you won't find in Dan's meditation sessions: performance, pressure or a strict set of rules you have to follow perfectly. Sit up, lie down, shift around if you need to. There's no wrong way to get comfortable, no wrong way to meditate and there's no wrong way to be here. If a posture or a technique doesn't feel right for your body, we adjust. Showing up and coming back matters so much more than doing it "correctly." That's what actually builds a practice that lasts.

About being in Conscious Community:
We believe healing happens through consistency, connection, and community. The Tuesday evenings offer a welcoming space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and build meaningful relationships with others on a regular basis.

Whether you're seeking meditation, personal growth, mindfulness practices, emotional support, stress relief, nervous system regulation, spiritual exploration, or simply a place to belong, our weekly gatherings provide opportunities to connect, restore, and grow in a supportive environment.

We offer a variety of other activities, classes and workshops as well which are all focused on exploring body/mind/spirit through group meditation, men/women support circles, sound baths, breathwork, yoga, and retreats focused on inward self-care and self-discovery designed to help you on your transformative journey of finding wholeness.

What to expect on Thursdays online:
Arrive. Settle in, let the day go, and give yourself permission to stop doing. Dan will open with a short thought to set the tone for the evening.
Be Still. Thirty minutes of guided meditation gives you space to turn inward, breathe, and simply be.

Exhale. We close by opening things up. Share what came up if you'd like, or just listen. Either way, leave a little quieter than you arrived, carrying that stillness with you into the weekend.
Not every day is a day to be social, and that's okay. You're always welcome to keep your camera off and simply be a silent witness. No sharing required, ever.

What to Expect
This half-day retreat is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and explore the many ways we can return to presence. Throughout our time together, we'll move between guided meditation, mindful movement, walking meditation, sensory awareness, reflection, and periods of stillness and silence.

Arrival & Grounding — Settle in, connect with the space, and begin creating an intention for the day.
Mindful Stretching — Begin the day with gentle, mindful movement led by Joelyn, bringing awareness into the body and preparing for the practices ahead.
Morning Sadhana — A guided meditation designed to help you settle into the present moment, awaken your awareness, connect with what matters most, and establish an intention for the day.
Walking Meditation — Experience presence in movement as we slow down and bring our awareness to each step, each breath, and the world around us.
Forgiveness & Release — A contemplative practice inviting forgiveness, compassion, gratitude, and love, creating space to gently release what we may be carrying.
Mindful Chocolate Experience — A playful and delicious exploration of presence through the senses. Slow down, pay attention, and experience something familiar in a completely different way.
Intermission — Time to stretch, refresh, connect, or simply enjoy a little space for yourself.
Doorways to Presence — A guided meditation inviting us to explore different doorways into presence, awareness, and connection.
Stillness, Silence & Spaciousness — Settle beneath the activity of the mind and experience the quiet spaciousness of simply being.
Integration & Closing Circle — Reflect on your experience, share what emerged for you, and explore how you can carry the practice of presence into everyday life.

You don't need to know how to meditate. You don't need to have a perfect practice. Just come as you are.

What to Bring
Chairs will be provided, so seating is covered. Here's what else to bring:

Yoga mat: needed for the mindful stretching portion, and welcome if you'd also like one under you for meditation
Cushion: optional, bring one if you like extra support for sitting
Pen: you'll get a workbook with space for reflection throughout the day but bring a journal if you prefer.
Water bottle: refreshments will be provided, but a refillable bottle is handy to have nearby
Blanket: nice for warmth or extra comfort during the stillness and silence
Comfortable layers: it's helpful to be able to adjust as we move between stretching, stillness and walking meditation

There's no correct way to sit. Stillness With Dan is about meditation for real life, so bring whatever helps you feel most at ease: a mat, a cushion, a chair or a blanket all work.
