Audio Discussions & Guided Meditations

We are Community Mindfulness Project because you are not alone in craving and searching for community.

All available programs coming up in person can be found in the schedule of the “Join Us” section of our site.

When we come together to support each other as a community, we are more connected & ever more resilient. We prioritize our initiatives on counterbalancing the overwhelming lean towards isolation that recent advances in technology and the pandemic have exacerbated. When we meet community members at their work, school or in public places that bring them together with their friends, family and others they can find connection with, the spaces become conducive to advancing positive relationships, identifying common needs and challenges, and gratitude.

Yes! We are proud to not turn anyone away at our community programming in person and virtually. Our programming is made possible by the generous support of donors, corporate and foundation funders.

Scholarships can also be made available for anyone who would like to join our training programs.

Yes! Beginners are encouraged to join us, and you will be supported by the faciltator and community members also present. There is no need to bring or wear anything special. You can arrive just as you are. Most people sit in a chair and chairs are always available. Much of the time we will be still so you may wish to bring a light sweater, but no special clothing is required.

…to be an ever evolving process that meets the unique needs of TODAY not yesterday.

Identify: Assess Data of economic and health indicators to prioritize and reach communities with highest unmet needs first

Listen & Learn: Meet with local stakeholders and community leaders

Serve: Deliver community-centric mindfulness programming
