Seasons of the Soul:
Learn to Dance with the Cycles of Life

This one-year course (which can also be taken as separate single quarterly experiences) offers an opportunity to explore the seasons of growth for the incarnated soul so that, together, we may synchronize and harmonize with the deep and enduring rhythm of Life and bring about a flowering of the soul.

Full Moon Meditations at Meditation Mount
In-person and Online

Each month at the time of the full moon, when the spiritual line-of-sight between Earth and the Sun is not blocked by the moon and therefore no shadow is cast upon the surface of the planet, we are afforded an opportunity to come into greater resonant relationship with the subtle realms of the Soul. Here at Meditation Mount we are one of countless centers and groups of individuals forming a vast network of light who gather at this specific time to deepen our connection and communion with the indwelling Planetary Life as an act of service to our world.

“Let us set our hearts on the sublime symphonies of the Universe. Though our mortal ears be deaf to the Music of the Spheres, yet will it be heard in the extended ears of our souls.”
– Pythagorean Liturgy

Sunday Morning Sound Meditation with Suburbanoid

Relax, reconnect and recenter yourself. Music and sound help with meditation concentration by focusing the mind. It can help to create positive vibrations and ease one into a state of deep relaxation. This allows the body, mind, and spirit to rejuvenate.

Suburbanoid performs a blissful sound meditation experience featuring sound drones layered with live instruments including Fusion Sitar, Tibetan singing bowls, guitar with electric bow, Koshi chimes, gong, harmony bars, synthesizers, sound loops, and vocals.

This event is intended to help people take a moment, relax, meditate, and find some peacefulness to bring and share in their upcoming week.

Guided Insight Journaling with Rachel Garahan

Take a moment to pause with the ritual of creative meditation and reflective writing exercises offered in the Auditorium at Meditation Mount.

In this journaling workshop for all levels, we will weave together seasonally relevant prompts inspired by archetypal, mythical, astrological themes and more to access our own inner wisdom and guide our month ahead. No experience necessary. Bring: a journal, pen and an open heart.

Yoga with Alana Mitnick

Meditation Mount is pleased to present Yoga with Alana Mitnick every first Saturday of the month in the Auditorium.

Yoga brings us into a more loving, conscious, and honest relationship with ourselves, others, and the natural world. Drawing awareness towards the subtle body through breath and sensation, this gentle yoga flow is designed to awaken the heart and inspire a flow of energy, in preparation for meditation.

Guided by love, Alana’s presence and teaching allows for the space to pause and listen within. Her yoga classes that are accessible to people of all ages, bodies, and abilities.

Gong Yoga Nidra with Carrie Gorrell and Lida Martin

Release, relax, and let go with gentle Yoga and gong Yoga Nidra, led by Carrie Gorrell and Lida Martin at Meditation Mount.

The session will begin with a Creative Meditation, peaceful Yoga flow, integrating breath with gentle movement, and continue with a beautiful gong Yoga Nidra experience.

One of the most profound ways to create relaxation with the Gong is through a guided process known as Yoga Nidra or “yogic sleep”. Yoga Nidra induces deep relaxation, heightens awareness, integrates changes, and accelerates healing. It is a powerful tool for therapeutic change. The Symphonic Gong is an amazing instrument that facilitates balance and ease in our physical and subtle bodies, releases stress, and is an opportunity for our entire nervous system to adjust and heal itself. Gong Yoga Nidra is an experience of deep relaxation and healing.

Gong Meditation with Alarra Saress

Meditation Mount is pleased to present a Gong Meditation with Alarra Saress. The sound of the gong takes you into an enhanced awareness of your wholeness—the unique and exquisite intricacy of your sacred architecture. We set our intention and illuminate the beauty of our inner lives.

The gong meditation journey with Alarra is a nurturing sonic space of harmonic waves and healing tones weaved by the 38” Sedna gong, singing bowls, crystal didgeridoo, ocarinas, glockenspiel, planetary tuning forks, and voice.

Signs of Hope

Signs of Hope was a series of conversations with pioneers serving the Common Good and actively sowing seeds of a better world at every opportunity. The intent behind this series was more than just naming people and projects around the planet that are giving birth to hope – its deeper purpose is to create a portal through which the presence of Fiery Hope can enter and ignite the heart of our humanity.
