About us
Stream Mindfulness Community is a meditation community in South Niagara and online, supporting simple, sustainable practices of stillness, awareness and inner reflection.
Our free weekly Wednesday evening meditation is open to everyone, from complete beginners to experienced practitioners, both in person at Stream Yoga + Meditation in Port Colborne and live on Zoom.
Rooted in Insight Meditation (Vipassana) and open to people of all backgrounds and beliefs, we gather for meditation, community conversations, days of practice and reflection, book studies, and other opportunities to learn and practise together.
Throughout the year, we also offer residential silent retreats in South Niagara for those who would like to step away from everyday life and deepen their practice.
Come practice with us.

The Boundless Heart
