We exist to provide a space where people who believe in the power of meditation for individual and collective wellbeing can come together as a community. While we were founded as a Christian meditation group, we welcome those of all faiths and none – those who are affiliated with any of the Christian traditions, other religious or wisdom traditions or none. We believe that meditation promotes the development of human consciousness toward a way of seeing and being in the world that enables us to live as one human family in harmony with all of creation.
We invite you to become involved in our community in any way that calls to you. Perhaps by looking for a meditation group near you or joining one of our online groups. If you have been meditating for some time in the Christian tradition you might like to start a group in your area. Or you may have a particular skill set that could be put to good use in helping to build up and support our community? Might you be open to becoming a director of Christian Meditation Ireland? Or be willing to support our community at regional level by helping to coordinate groups across a given region?
Perhaps you have a passion for a particular sector of society who might benefit from meditation and be willing to start ot support an initiative in that area. We have one outreach program at the moment – see our Meditation and Children page. We would love to develop initiatives such as Meditation and Prisons, Meditation and Homeless, Meditation and Asylum Seekers, Meditation and Business, Meditation and any of the professions and so on.
Or you might be open to taking on a more limited role in the background. For example, helping to keep our website updated, assisting with our regular newsletters, and so on. Or, finally, you can offer us real support by making a donation to our work, however small. Our standing costs, the costs we bear just by being, come to about €1,800 per annum including public liability insurance, annual accounts, website maintenance, bank charges. Every donation we receive helps us to keep the cost of events and retreats as low as possible so please do consider making a donation using the button below.
If you feel called to do something in any of these areas, please contact our National Coordinator or your regional coordinator by visiting the Coordinators Page – just click on the image to the right.
