About us
Do you enjoy going to spiritual/new age/heart and consciousness-focused events? Or perhaps you would like to share the info about your spiritual event with others? If your answer is yes, this group is for you!
This is a very open meetup, and you are welcome and encouraged to post your events here as long as you are respectful of the spiritual choices of others.
The goal of this meetup group is to help us get together to celebrate our spiritual awakening and transformation and create, experience and share with others beautiful and powerful group energy by participating in different spiritual events happening in the city of Vancouver, meeting like-minded people and expanding our spiritual community. In the world where we've spent so much time training our minds to be extremely busy at all times, our main concentration will be on opening our hearts through participating in group meditations, workshops, retreats, chanting, dancing, drum circles, yoga classes, spiritual concerts and performances and much more.

Cosmic Throat Singer Matthew Kocel: Music of the Earth & Sky
Bridge and Enrich Lives Society, 718 E.20th (Fraser & 20th) Vancouver V5V 1N3, Vancouver, BC, CAYour world is about to change.
When you can move beyond the 5 senses with an open heart, the universe opens up to you.
People around the world say that's what happens when Cosmic Throat Singer Matthew Kocel unleashes his voice and music.
The walls melt. Visions come.
Something ancient wakes up inside you.
“Words seem so deficient for explaining the depth of experience... I was being moved by sound, my whole body was light and vibrating.” — Vancouver Yoga Review
Matthew Kocel's voice and music are known around the world as an entry point to the universe. Stories abound of people going on journeys beyond space and time, just by listening to his music.
And all of it is created with his voice, his heart, and simple acoustic instruments.
On this special night, Matthew will be supported by master percussionist Ron "Radar" Stelting - adding rocket fuel to the fire.
Ron isn't just another cool guy who plays drums.
He's a master percussionist with over 50 years real world experience as a performer.
When his hands touch those drum skins you feel it in your bones - before your brain even knows what's happening.
As the swirling overtones of Matthew's voice and music connect with grounding primal rhythms, a new dimension opens up like a landscape laid out before you.
You might want to lie down. You might want to move with the music. You might want to sit back and just take it in while watching these sound wizards create magic out of thin air.
This isn't a "normal" night out.
And it sure isn't just another sound bath.
Mathew has been healing and making magic with sound and music for over 30 years - way before it was cool.
This dude is on a level most "sound healers" only dream of.
You'll see.More importantly, you will FEEL it.
It's happening Saturday, April 18th in East Van.
The venue is intimate, cozy, and right in East Van. Tickets are already moving and this one will sell out.
You don't want to miss this.

With everything happening in the world right now, this is real medicine for real people who know something big is shifting on this planet.
These concerts don't exist to distract you. They exist to remind you what humans are actually capable of when the right sounds hit the right moment.

ONLINE SPIRITUAL POETRY MEETUP
·OnlineOnlineWe meet online the third Sunday of every month from 4:00-6:00pm Pacific Time to read and discuss spiritual poetry and wisdom quotes, and to share thoughts, feelings and insights inspired by the readings. About 25 people attend from several groups - we'd love to hear from you what poem or quote is meaningful to you - Do you love Rumi, Rilke, Joy Harjo, Hafiz, Mary Oliver, Alice Walker, Ryokan, Thomas Merton, Mirabai, Pablo Neruda, Hildegard of Bingen, Wendell Berry, Nâzım Hikmet, Thich Nhat Hanh or...? Every meetup is different, depending on what you choose to read and discuss. Let's learn from each other as we share these invitations to what is higher and deeper.
Please RSVP by three hours prior to the meetup to make sure to get the password on time!
We draw strength, support, and inspiration from poetry and wisdom traditions. All paths and views are welcome -- this is an open and welcoming space where we get to know others who share a love for spiritual poetry and wisdom quotes, and for that which connects us with a deeper life, regardless of spiritual path or personal history. (We value and appreciate the poets among us, but we do not read our own work.)
NOTE: RSVPs close three hours before the meetup begins. To join the meeting you must be logged in on Zoom, and a password is required. The password will be sent by direct message or email as we get closer to the date. Please make sure your email settings on Meetup allow you to receive Meetup's emails for this group, and please check your Meetup account for messages. For information on how to adjust your email settings click here. If you haven't received the login details by early the day of the meetup, please let me know.
