A gathering to explore mindfulness, mediation, chanting and who knows what else.

 

Get Together is taking a break for the summer but we hope to be back in the fall. We'll announce updates here and on Facebook.

An hour of chanting, meditation, mutual inspiration, relaxation and... of course, a laugh or two. Meeting in the lower level of 2nd April galerie in the Kathleen Howland theatre on the 2nd Saturday at 2nd April... got it? ;) .
324 Cleveland Ave Nw, in downtown Canton OH.

A goodwill donation is collected after the gathering to pay for expenses.

The Get Together is a time to gather and explore the power of stillness and resting in the present moment. It is intended to provide a space where people from various backgrounds and experiences can:
• learn more • practice • be part of a group
• for support •as a source of ideas.

We hope to begin by exploring techniques of meditation, mindfulness and chant. We trust that the group’s interests will direct other experiences. The emphasis will be on practice, with discussion aiding the process when necessary.

The group, while spiritual in nature, is not religious. We intend to provide an atmosphere where people of any or no tradition will feel welcome.

We hope you plan to join us.


The ideas of resting in the present moment and the power of stillness have become increasingly popular through authors such as Thich Nhat Hanh, Eckhart Tölle, Adyashanti, Jan Frazier and others. While these ideas often resonate with people, many find themselves unsure as to how to begin to apply them. Others may feel more comfortable in practicing the ideas, but wish there was a group available for support and a source of ideas. That’s what this Get Together is all about.

The Get Together focus will be on exploring techniques of meditation, mindfulness and chant, as the group’s interest directs. There will be enough of a variety of interests so as to examine different possibilities of practice, yet few enough to provide a depth of experience. The emphasis will be on practice, with discussion being secondary in aiding the process when necessary.

The Get Together, while obviously spiritual in nature, will espouse no religious tradition. Every effort will be made to provide an atmosphere where people of any or no tradition can feel welcome.

2nd April is supporting the group by offering the space. A free-will donation will be requested from folks who attend. All that is asked is for a reasonable donation to be made, and trust that if this thing is to fly, donations will provide the resources needed for the success of the meetings.
The group will be meeting every 2nd Saturday of the month (remember, 2nd April, 2nd Saturday, Get Together ) at 10 AM in the Kathleen Howland Theatre in the basement of 2nd April Art Galerie, 324 Cleveland Ave NW, Downtown Canton. Beverages and snacks are available at the gallery café.
Hope to see you there.
