Sometimes meditators experience a call to promote meditation with a particular group in society. You will see on these pages how we have developed an initiative promoting meditation with children. Noel Keating currently coordinates that program and he is assisted by a small team of meditators who are also keenly interested in promoting the practice in schools and with young people. We are always delighted to hear from anyone who would like to hear more about becoming involved.
We would also love to hear from you if you experience a desire to promote meditation with any group or sector in society. You may be really well placed within a particular context or profession to start such an initiative.
WCCM has an outreach arm called Meditatio which has developed a range of initiatives to address issues in modern secular society. They teach meditation as a universal practice, but convey its deeper fruits as well as the psychological benefits. Such initiatives include Meditation and Children, Meditation and Prisons, Meditation and Recovery from Addiction, Meditation and Homelessness etc. You can find out more by clicking here.
If you experience a call to become involved in such an initiative in Ireland, please contact our National Coordinator at mnkeating@gmail.com We will offer all the help and support we can; that may include initial funds to kickstart an initiative.
